14-2-933. Shareholder option to dissolve corporation

(a) The articles of incorporation, bylaws adopted by the shareholders, or an agreement among all the shareholders of a statutory close corporation may authorize one or more shareholders, or the holders of a specified number or percentage of shares of any class or series, to dissolve the corporation at will or upon the occurrence of a specified event or contingency. The shareholder or shareholders exercising this authority must give written notice of the intent to dissolve to all the other shareholders. Thirty-one days after the effective date of the notice, the corporation shall begin to wind up and liquidate its business and affairs and begin dissolution proceedings under Code Sections 14-2-1403 through 14-2-1408.

(b) Unless the articles of incorporation, bylaws adopted by the shareholders, or any agreement among all the shareholders provides otherwise, an amendment to the articles of incorporation, bylaws adopted by the shareholders, or any agreement among all the shareholders to add, change, or delete the authority to dissolve described in subsection (a) of this Code section must be approved by the holders of all the outstanding shares, whether or not otherwise entitled to vote on amendments, or, if no shares have been issued, by all the subscribers for shares, if any, or, if none, by all the incorporators.
