17:9A-16. Organization of a bank or savings bank at location occupied by a bank or savings bank in process of or in contemplation of liquidation  A. As used in this section: (1) "successor bank" means a bank organized to transact business at one or more of the locations occupied by a predecessor bank; (2) "predecessor bank" means a bank in liquidation or in contemplation of liquidation; (3) "successor savings bank" means a savings bank organized to transact business at one or more of the locations occupied by a predecessor savings bank; (4) "predecessor savings bank" means a savings bank in liquidation or in contemplation of liquidation. B. When the application for charter discloses that it is proposed to organize a successor bank or a successor savings bank, the commissioner may act immediately thereon, and if he shall be satisfied that the establishment of the successor bank or successor savings bank will tend to continue an established banking business, and that it is in the public interest that such established banking business be so continued, he may approve the application, without the prior notice, publication, and hearing required by sections 10 and 11. C. Subject to the approval of the commissioner, a predecessor bank may be an incorporator of, and may subscribe for and purchase shares of the capital stock of its successor bank, and may pay for such stock in money or in assets owned by it other than money; in which event, the certificate of incorporation of the successor bank, and the affidavit filed pursuant to section 14, shall state the amount of the entire consideration received by the successor bank upon issuance of its shares, and what part thereof consists of money, and what part thereof consists of consideration other than money. D. When a predecessor bank is an incorporator of its successor bank, any affidavit or oath required by the provisions of this act to be made by incorporators shall be made on behalf of the predecessor bank by any two of its officers designated by its board of directors. E. A successor bank may contract with its predecessor bank to liquidate the assets of the predecessor bank upon such terms and conditions as the commissioner shall approve; but this subsection shall not limit the power of the predecessor bank to dissolve voluntarily as by law provided, nor shall it limit or restrict the power of the commissioner to liquidate banks as provided by law. F. A successor bank may, on its organization, issue preferred stock in such amounts, and subject to such terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of this act, as the commissioner shall approve. G. A successor savings bank may, with the approval of the commissioner, purchase and pay for the assets of its predecessor savings bank, and may borrow money for that purpose. H. This section shall not exempt a successor bank or successor savings bank from any provisions of this act, except to the extent that such provisions are modified or are made inapplicable to successor banks or successor savings banks by the express provisions hereof. I. A successor bank may be organized only to succeed a predecessor bank, and a successor savings bank may be organized only to succeed a predecessor savings bank. L.1948, c. 67, p. 191, s. 16.
