§ 1209 Bank Security Exchange Approval
This law lets the state commissioner check and approve any deal where a bank wants to give out new securities or other things in exchange for existing securities, claims, property, or cash, and it gives anyone who will get those new securities a chance to speak at a hearing.
A bank wants to trade some of its own bonds for a company's stock and some cash.
The bank must ask the commissioner for permission. The commissioner will look at the deal to make sure it’s fair, can set rules for it, and will hold a hearing where the company and its shareholders can be heard before the deal is approved.
