Conversion into state association

(1) Any federal savings and loan association may convert itself into an association under articles 40 to 46 of this title 11 by the majority vote of all members present in person or by proxy at an annual meeting or at any special meeting called to consider the action. Copies of the minutes of the proceedings of the meeting of members, verified by the affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary, shall be filed in the office of the commissioner within ten days after the meeting. The verified copies of the proceedings of the meeting when filed are prima facie evidence of the holding and action of the meeting. (2) At the meeting at which conversion is voted upon, the members shall also vote upon the directors who shall be the directors of the state-chartered association after conversion takes effect. Such directors shall then execute two copies of the certificate of incorporation and four copies of the bylaws. The directors chosen for the association shall all sign and acknowledge the certificate of incorporation as subscribers thereto and the bylaws as incorporators of the association. The commissioner may provide, by regulation, for the procedure to be followed by any such federal savings and loan association converting into an association under articles 40 to 46 of this title. The state-chartered association shall be a continuation of the corporate entity of the converting federal association and continue to have all of its property and rights.
