COMMENT

This section is based on the Model Act and on its Business Code counterpart, section 14-2-731. It permits written voting agreements between or among members and provides that such agreements may be valid for up to twenty years. Voting agreements among members of corporations described in section 14-3-1302(a)(2) must be for a reasonable purpose that is not inconsistent with the corporation's purposes.
