(b) In an action under subsection (a), the court may order the following relief:

(c) The court, at any time during the pendency of the action and upon the motion of the complaining shareholder, may order the corporation to purchase the shares of the petitioning shareholder at a fair price determined by the court, with or without the assistance of appraisers, and payable in cash or in installments and with or without such security other than personal commitments of other shareholders as the court may direct.

(d) Either the corporation or any shareholder or group of shareholders may, any time after the filing of an action for dissolution pursuant to subdivision (b)(3), petition the court to purchase the shares of a complaining shareholder and, unless the court finds such procedure to be inequitable, the court shall determine the fair value of the shares as of such date as the court finds equitable. In so doing, the court shall follow the procedures set forth for appraisal of shares under Section 11.70 and shall thereafter dismiss the action.
