Sec. 764.

(1) If a proposed corporate action that creates dissenters' rights under section 762 is submitted to a vote at a shareholders' meeting, the meeting notice must state that shareholders are or may be entitled to assert dissenters' rights under this act and be accompanied by a copy of sections 761 to 774.

(2) Except as provided in subsection (3), if a corporate action that creates dissenters' rights under section 762 is taken without a vote of shareholders, the corporation shall notify in writing all shareholders that are entitled to assert dissenters' rights that the action was taken and send them the dissenters' notice described in section 766. A shareholder that consents to the corporate action is not entitled to assert dissenters' rights.

(3) If a corporate action creates dissenters' rights under section 762(1)(a)(ii) or (b)(ii), an offer made under section 703a(3) must state that shareholders are or may be entitled to assert dissenters' rights under this act and be accompanied by a copy of sections 761 to 774 and the dissenters' notice described in section 766.
