Notwithstanding the definition of "savings bank" set forth in division (A)(1) of section 1161.01 of the Revised Code, the superintendent of savings banks may authorize the secretary of state to record articles of incorporation of an interim savings bank organized under this chapter to facilitate a merger, consolidation, or acquisition of an existing savings bank, or to facilitate any other transaction the superintendent may approve. In connection with the merger, consolidation, acquisition, or transaction, the superintendent may waive the minimum authorized capital requirements of section 1161.10 of the Revised Code and the statutory reserve and net worth requirements established pursuant to section 1161.53 of the Revised Code, and may deviate from the provisions relating to the consideration of applications to organize a savings bank as set forth in this chapter. In the event that the merger, consolidation, or acquisition or transaction does not occur within a one-year period after the date upon which the interim savings bank is incorporated, its articles of incorporation shall be declared void by the superintendent. This one-year period may not be extended.
