Section 365 - Amendment or abandonment of plan of division

(a) Approval of amendment.--A plan of division in which the dividing association is a domestic entity may be amended in one of the following ways:

(1) In the same manner as the plan was approved, if the plan does not provide for the manner in which it may be amended.

(2) By its governors or interest holders in the manner provided in the plan, but an interest holder that was entitled to vote on or consent to approval of the plan is entitled to vote on or consent to any amendment of the plan that will change any of the following:

(i) The amount or kind of interests, securities, obligations, money, other property, rights to acquire interests or securities, or any combination of the foregoing, to be received by any of the interest holders of the dividing association under the plan.

(ii) The public organic record, if any, or private organic rules of any of the resulting associations that will be in effect immediately after the division becomes effective, except for changes that do not require approval of the interest holders of the resulting association under its organic law or organic rules.

(iii) Any other terms or conditions of the plan, if the change would:

(A) increase the interest holder liability to which the interest holder will be subject; or

(B) otherwise adversely affect the interest holder in any material respect.

(b) Approval of abandonment.--After a plan of division has been approved by a domestic entity that is the dividing association and before a statement of division becomes effective, the plan may be abandoned as provided in the plan. Unless prohibited by the plan, a domestic entity that is the dividing association may abandon the plan in the same manner as the plan was approved.

(c) Statement of abandonment.--If a plan of division is abandoned after a statement of division has been delivered to the department for filing and before the statement becomes effective, a statement of abandonment under section 141 (relating to abandonment of filing before effectiveness), signed by the dividing association, must be delivered to the department for filing before the time the statement of division becomes effective. The statement of abandonment shall take effect on filing, and the division shall be abandoned and shall not become effective.
