Amendments to articles of incorporation to carry out court ordered reorganization.
Miss. Code Ann. § 79-11-309
in effectA corporation’s articles of incorporation may be amended without action by the board of directors or members to carry out a plan of reorganization ordered or decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction under federal statute if the articles of incorporation after amendment contain only provisions required or permitted by Section 79-11-137. The individual or individuals designated by the court shall deliver to the Secretary of State for filing articles of amendment setting forth: The name of the corporation; The text of each amendment approved by the court; The date of the court’s order or decree approving the articles of amendment; The title of the reorganization proceeding in which the order or decree was entered; and A statement that the court had jurisdiction of the proceeding under federal statute. Members of a corporation undergoing reorganization do not have dissenters’ rights except as and to the extent provided in the reorganization plan. This section does not apply after entry of a final decree in the reorganization proceeding even though the court retains jurisdiction of the proceeding for limited purposes unrelated to consummation of the reorganization plan.
