(1) the amount or kind of shares or other securities, obligations, rights to acquire shares or other securities, cash, or other property to be received by the shareholders under the plan;
(2) the articles of incorporation as they will be in effect immediately following the domestication, except for changes permitted by RSA 293-A:10.05 or by comparable provisions of the laws of the other jurisdiction; or
(3) any of the other terms or conditions of the plan if the change would adversely affect any of the shareholders in any material respect.
(e) Terms of a plan of domestication may be made dependent upon facts objectively ascertainable outside the plan in accordance with RSA 293-A:1.20(j).
