Statute Text
Effective date of amended articles of incorporation; effect on existing cause
of action.
(1)
Except as provided in subsection (2) of this section, after the Director of the
Department of Consumer and Business Services approves and files an amendment to
the articles of incorporation, the amendment is effective and the articles of
incorporation are amended accordingly.
(2) If an
amendment to the articles of incorporation specifies a delayed effective date,
the amendment is effective on the date specified. A delayed effective date for
an amendment may not be later than the 90th day after the date on which the
director approves and files the amendment.
(3) An amendment
does not affect any existing cause of action in favor of or against a banking
institution, any pending suit to which such banking institution is a party or

changes the corporate name does not abate an action brought by or against the
banking institution under the former name. [1989 c.324 §15; 1997 c.631 §64;
