Section 487.3608 - Reorganization of savings bank(1) In a reorganization of a savings bank under a plan of a kind that requires the consent of depositors and other creditors or of shareholders or members or of both depositors and other creditors and shareholders or members, the reorganization shall become effective when both of the following occur: (a) The commissioner is satisfied that the plan of reorganization is fair and equitable as to all depositors, other creditors and shareholders or members and is in the public interest and has approved the plan subject to such conditions, restrictions, and limitations as he or she may require.(b) After reasonable notice of the reorganization as determined by the commissioner, depositors and other creditors of the savings bank representing not less than 75% in amount of the sum of its total deposits and other liabilities as shown by the books of the savings bank, or shareholders owning at least 2/3 of its outstanding capital stock or 2/3 of the eligible voting members if it is a mutual savings bank as shown by the books of the savings bank, shall have consented in writing to the plan of reorganization. Claims of depositors or other creditors which will be satisfied in full under the plan of reorganization shall not be included among the total deposits and other liabilities of the savings bank in determining the 75% of total deposits. The term "reorganization" as used in this section may be construed to include the establishment of a new savings bank in conformity with a plan of reorganization.(2) When the reorganization becomes effective, all books, records, and assets of the savings bank shall be disposed of in accordance with the plan and the affairs of the savings bank shall be conducted by its board of directors in the manner provided by the plan and under the conditions, restrictions, and limitations that may have been prescribed by the commissioner.(3) In a reorganization which has been approved and become effective, all depositors and other creditors and shareholders or members of the savings bank, whether or not they have consented to the plan of reorganization, shall be subject to and bound by its provisions and claims of all depositors and other creditors shall be treated as if they had consented to the plan or reorganization. The state or any department, agency, or political subdivision of the state holding a claim against the savings bank is authorized to participate in a plan of reorganization as any other creditor and shall be subject to and bound by its provisions as any other creditor.1996, Act 354, Imd.
