§ 108. Reincorporation of existing corporations. Any heretofore incorporated American Orthodox church may reincorporate under the provisions of this article, by filing in the office of the county clerk in the county in which its principal place of worship is located, a certificate, signed by the trustees in office at the time of such reincorporation, or by the majority of them, setting forth that they desire to reincorporate under the provisions of this article, the corporate name by which such church shall be known, the county, town, city or village where its principal place of worship is located and the number and the names of the trustees who are to hold office until the next annual meeting of said church. Immediately upon the filing of such certificate all the right, title, equity and interest of such church in any estate, real or personal, together with all franchise and charter rights, shall be vested in the body corporate and politic so created under this article and the original incorporation of such church shall be null and void.
