(1) A plan of merger may be amended only with the consent of each party to the plan except as otherwise provided in the plan or in the organic rules of each such entity.

(2) A merging limited liability company may approve an amendment of a plan of merger:

(a) In the same manner that the plan was approved if the plan does not provide for the manner in which it may be amended; or

(b) By the managers or members in the manner provided in the plan, but a member who was entitled to vote on or consent to the approval of the merger is entitled to vote on or consent to an amendment of the plan which will change:

  1. 1. The amount or kind of interests, securities, obligations, money, other property, rights to acquire interests or securities, or any combination of the foregoing, to be received by the interest holders of any party to the plan;

  2. 2. The public organic record, if any, or private organic rules of the surviving entity which will be in effect immediately after the merger becomes effective, except for changes that do not require approval of the interest holders of the surviving entity under its organic law or organic rules; or

  3. 3. Any other terms or conditions of the plan if the change would adversely affect the member in any material respect.

(a) The name of each party to the plan of merger.

(b) The date on which the articles of merger were delivered to the department for filing.
