Sec. 5. The terms and conditions of conversion and the rights of the depositors under the conversion are as follows:

(1) A depositor may subscribe to the capital stock of the bank or trust company:

(A) in an amount equal to part or all of the depositor's pro rata interest in the surplus of the savings bank;

(B) in an additional amount equal to part or all of the depositor's savings deposits in the savings bank; and

(C) in other additional amounts desired by the depositor.

(2) If the aggregate subscriptions received from depositors under subdivision (1) exceed the proposed capital of the bank or trust company:

(A) the proposed capital may be increased to the extent required to eliminate the oversubscription by amending the resolution of conversion and the proposed articles of incorporation of the bank or trust company; or

(B) the subscriptions of the depositors may be ratably reduced to the extent required to eliminate the oversubscription.

(3) If the aggregate subscriptions do not amount to a full subscription to the capital stock of the bank or trust company, the trustees may open the subscription list to the general public in order to eliminate the undersubscription.

(4) Upon conversion, all savings deposits in the savings bank, except those allocated to subscriptions by depositors under subdivision (1)(C):

(A) become savings deposits in the bank or trust company; and

(B) are subject to the withdrawal restrictions applicable to savings deposits in banks or trust companies organized under IC 28-1.

(5) The rights of depositors with respect to their pro rata interests in the surplus of the savings bank are as follows:

(A) Upon conversion, the amount of the depositors' pro rata interests in the surplus of the savings bank that have not been allocated to subscriptions by the depositors under subdivision (1)(A) shall, at the election of those depositors, be paid to the depositors in cash or credited to their savings deposits in the bank or trust company. The pro rata interests of depositors who fail to make an election with respect to the distribution of the interests before the effective date of conversion shall be credited to the savings deposits of the depositors in the bank or trust company.

(B) The value of each depositor's pro rata interest in the surplus of the savings bank shall be computed by multiplying the amount in the surplus, as of the date of the resolution of conversion, by a percentage determined by dividing the total amount of savings deposits on the date of the resolution of conversion into the amount of each depositor's savings deposits on that date. Each interest shall be increased or decreased by applying the same percentage multiple to the amount of any increase or decrease in the surplus occurring within the period of time between the date of the resolution of conversion and the effective date of conversion. For purposes of this section, each depositor of the savings bank shall be considered a depositor as of the date of the resolution of conversion. Depositors of the savings bank who withdrew all of their deposits before the date of the resolution of conversion have no right or claim to any of the savings bank's surplus.

(C) Subscriptions, payments in cash, or savings deposit credits made under this section constitute satisfaction in full of each depositor's pro rata interest in the surplus of the savings bank.
