The resulting insured nonstock institution meets the requirements of the Bank Act;

The merger will not be detrimental to the safety and soundness of the resulting insured nonstock institution;

The merger is not contrary to the public interest; and

The director is satisfied that the merger is permitted by the state or federal supervisory authority having jurisdiction over the resulting insured nonstock institution.

If the director disapproves a plan of merger, the director shall state any objections in writing and give the boards of the parties to the merger an opportunity to amend the plan of merger to obviate the objections. The amended plan of merger shall be submitted to the director for approval as if it were the original plan of merger.
