RS 12:1805: Termination of status

A. A benefit corporation may terminate its status as such and cease to be subject to this Chapter by amending its articles to delete the provision required by R.S. 12:1804 to be stated in the articles of a benefit corporation. In order to be effective, the amendment shall be adopted by at least the minimum vote.

B. If a merger or consolidation of a benefit corporation would have the effect of terminating the status of a business corporation as a benefit corporation, in order to be effective, the plan of merger or consolidation shall be adopted by at least the minimum vote of the benefit corporation. Any sale, lease, exchange, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of a benefit corporation, unless the transaction is in the usual and regular course of business, shall not be effective unless the transaction is approved by at least the minimum vote.
