§ 55-11A-04. Effects of conversion.

§ 55‑11A‑04.  Effects of conversion.

When the conversion takes effect:

(1)        The converting business entity ceases its prior form of organization and continues in existence as the resulting domestic corporation;

(2)        The title to all real estate and other property owned by the converting business entity continues vested in the resulting domestic corporation without reversion or impairment;

(3)        All liabilities of the converting business entity continue as liabilities of the resulting domestic corporation;

(4)        A proceeding pending by or against the converting business entity may be continued as if the conversion did not occur; and

(5)        The interests in the converting business entity that are to be converted into shares, obligations, or other securities of the resulting domestic corporation or into the right to receive cash or other property are thereupon so converted, and the former holders of interests in the converting business entity are entitled only to the rights provided in the plan of conversion.

The conversion shall not affect the liability or absence of liability of any holder of an interest in the converting business entity for any acts, omissions, or obligations of the converting business entity made or incurred prior to the effectiveness of the conversion. The cessation of the existence of the converting business entity in its prior form of organization in the conversion shall not constitute a dissolution or termination of the converting business entity.
