4908.03.  A merger is subject to the provisions of Section 1108 of
the Corporations Code.



4908.04.  A disappearing or surviving depository corporation shall
file an application for approval of a merger with the commissioner.



4908.05.  A merger shall not become effective unless it has been

corporation will be adequate and that the financial condition of the
surviving depository corporation will be satisfactory.
   (b) That the directors and executive officers of the surviving
depository corporation will be satisfactory.

that the commissioner may require.



4908.10.  (a) After a merger becomes effective, the surviving
depository corporation may issue an officers' certificate, stating
that the disappearing depository corporation merged into the
surviving depository corporation and specifying the time at which the
merger became effective.
   (b) Any certificate issued pursuant to subdivision (a) shall be
prima facie evidence of the fact of the merger and of the regularity
of the proceedings taken for the merger and shall be conclusive
evidence of the matters in favor of any innocent purchaser or
encumbrancer for value.
