15 Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes § 344 - Amendment Or Abandonment Of Plan Of Interest Exchange

§ 344. Amendment or abandonment of plan of interest exchange.

(a) General rule.--A plan of interest exchange may be amended or abandoned only with the consent of each party to the plan, except as otherwise provided in the plan.

(b) Approval of amendment.--A domestic entity that is the acquired association may approve an amendment of a plan of interest exchange 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 entity under the plan.

(ii) The public organic record, if any, or private organic rules of the entity that will be in effect immediately after the interest exchange becomes effective, except for changes that do not require approval of the interest holders of the entity 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.

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

(d) Statement of abandonment.--If a plan of interest exchange is abandoned after a statement of interest exchange 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 acquired association, must be delivered to the department for filing before the time the statement of interest exchange becomes effective.
