The officer or agent having charge of the stock transfer books for shares of a bank or trust company shall make a complete list of the shareholders entitled to vote at a meeting of shareholders or any adjournment thereof, arranged in alphabetical order, showing the address of each shareholder and the number and class, if any, of shares held by each shareholder. Such list shall be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of any shareholder during the whole time of the meeting for the purposes thereof. Such list shall be prima-facie evidence of who is a shareholder of record; but, in the event of challenge, the record of shareholders required by Code Section 7-1-439 shall control. If the requirements of this Code section have not been substantially complied with, the meeting shall, on the demand of any shareholder in person or by proxy, be adjourned until the requirements are complied with. If no such demand is made, failure to comply with the requirements of this Code section shall not affect the validity of any action taken at such meeting. Notwithstanding subsections (a) through (c) of this Code section, it shall not be necessary to prepare or produce a list of shareholders in any case where the record of shareholders is presented and readily shows, in alphabetical order or by alphabetical index and by classes, if any, the names of the shareholders entitled to vote, with the address of and the number of shares held by each. (Code 1933, § 41A-2005, enacted by Ga. L. 1974, p. 705, § 1; Ga. L. 1977, p. 730, § 6.)
