New Jersey § 17:9a-17

§ 17:9a-17.

The certificate of incorporation with the commissioner's approval endorsed thereon

or annexed thereto shall be filed in the department, and shall be recorded within

30 days after such approval in the same manner and places as required by section 12

of P.L.1948, c. 67 ( C. 17:9A-12 ). Upon the approval by the commissioner, the filing of the certificate of incorporation,

and the transfer of assets and liabilities, the converting corporation shall cease

to be a capital stock savings bank or bank, as the case may be, its legal existence

as a corporate entity shall terminate and the bank or capital stock savings bank,

as the case may be, shall succeed to all property of the converted corporation, including

the right, title and interest in and to all property of whatsoever kind and nature,

whether real, personal or mixed and things, and choses in action, and every right,

privilege, interest and asset of every conceivable value or benefit then existing

or pertaining to it, or which would inure to it, immediately by operation of law and

without the necessity for any conveyance or transfer and without any further act or

deed, shall vest in the bank or capital stock savings bank which is the resulting

entity. The resulting bank or capital stock savings bank, as the case may be, shall have,

hold and enjoy the same in its own right as fully and to the same extent as the same

was possessed, held and enjoyed by the converted corporation. All pending actions and other judicial or administrative proceedings to which the

converting corporation was a party shall not be discontinued by reason of the conversion,

but may be prosecuted to final judgment or order in the same manner as if the conversion

had not been made and the corporation resulting from the conversion may continue such

actions in its name after conversion. Any judgment or order may be rendered for or against it which might have been rendered

for or against the converting corporation theretofore involved in the judicial proceedings.
