    (5) a party to a voting agreement created under IC 23-1-31-2.
  (f) The death or incapacity of the shareholder appointing a proxy does not affect the right of the corporation to accept the proxy's authority unless notice of the death or incapacity is received by the secretary or other officer or agent authorized to tabulate votes before the proxy exercises the proxy's authority under the appointment.
  (g) An appointment made irrevocable under subsection (e) is revoked when the interest with which it is coupled is extinguished.
  (h) A transferee for value of shares subject to an irrevocable appointment may revoke the appointment if the transferee did not know of its existence when the transferee acquired the shares and the existence of the irrevocable appointment was not noted conspicuously on the certificate representing the shares or on the information statement for shares without certificates.
  (i) Subject to section 5 of this chapter and to any express limitation on the proxy's authority contained in the writing or electronic submission, a corporation is entitled to accept the proxy's vote or other action as that of the shareholder making the appointment.
