The records that the company will make available in response to the demand and when and where the company will make the records available. The time and location may not be unreasonable under the circumstances. 2. The reasons for declining if the company declines to provide any demanded records. D. Whenever this chapter or the operating agreement provides for a member or manager to vote on or give or withhold consent to a matter, before the vote is cast or consent is given or withheld, the limited liability company, without demand, shall provide the member or manager with all information that is known to the company and all records in the company's possession that are material to the member's or manager's decision except to the extent the company reasonably believes that the member or manager already knows the information or is in possession of the records. E. To the extent that some or all of a limited liability company's records are maintained by a member or manager, the member or manager shall make those records available to the company as necessary for the company to satisfy its obligations pursuant to this section. F. Subject to subsection L of this section, on ten days' demand made in a record received by a limited liability company, a person dissociated as a member may have access to the records to which the person was entitled while a member if all of the following apply: 1. The records pertain to the period during which the person was a member. 2. The person seeks the records in good faith. 3.

A limited liability company shall respond to a demand made pursuant to subsection F of this section in the manner provided in subsection C of this section. H. A limited liability company may charge a person that makes a demand under this section the reasonable costs of copying, limited to the costs of labor and material. I. A member or person dissociated as a member may exercise the rights under this section through an agent or, in the case of an individual under legal disability, a legal representative. Any restriction or condition imposed by the operating agreement or under subsection K of this section applies both to the agent or legal representative and to the member or person dissociated as a member. J. Subject to sections 29-3502 and 29-3504, the rights under this section do not extend to a person as transferee. K. In addition to any restriction or condition stated in its operating agreement, a limited liability company may impose reasonable restrictions and conditions on access to and use of information to be furnished and records to be made available under this section, including designating information and records confidential and imposing nondisclosure and safeguarding obligations on the recipient. In a dispute concerning the reasonableness of a restriction under this subsection, the company has the burden of proving reasonableness. L. If a dispute arises regarding a member's or manager's right under this section to obtain information or inspect or copy a record, or regarding whether any restriction imposed by the limited liability company on a member's or manager's right to obtain, inspect, copy or use any such information or record is unreasonable, the court may award the successful party reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorney fees and costs.
