Tenn. Code Ann. § 43-38-526: Determination of the owners of membership interests

(a) The articles or bylaws may fix a "record date" for the determination of the owners of membership interests entitled to notice of and entitled to vote at a meeting, to demand a meeting, to vote or to take any other action. When a date is so fixed, only members on that date are entitled to notice of and permitted to vote at that meeting of members or to take any other action on the subject of this notice. If no date is so fixed, the record date is the close of business the business day before the first notice is sent.

(b) The secretary of the cooperative shall prepare a list of the names of all members who are entitled to vote at the meeting of the members and show the address of and membership interest or interests held by each member as reflected in the records of the cooperative.

(c) The list must be available for inspection and copying by any member, beginning two (2) business days after notice of the meeting is given for which the list was prepared and continuing through the meeting, at the cooperative's principal executive office or at a place identified in the meeting notice in the city where the meeting will be held. A violation of this subsection (c) entitles any member seeking to inspect the list to equitable relief under § 43-38-705 .
