A state bank owning at least ninety-five percent of the outstanding shares, of each class, of another corporation which it is authorized to own under this chapter, may merge the other corporation into itself without approval by a vote of the shareholders of either the state bank or the subsidiary corporation. The board of directors of the state bank shall approve a plan of merger, mail to shareholders of record of the subsidiary corporation, and prepare and execute articles of merger in the manner provided for in section 490.1104. The articles of merger, together with the applicable filing and recording fees, shall be delivered to the superintendent who shall, if the superintendent approves of the proposed merger and if the superintendent finds the articles of merger satisfy the requirements of this section, deliver them to the secretary of state for filing and recording in the secretary of state's office, and they shall be filed in the office of the county recorder. The secretary of state upon filing the articles of merger shall issue a certificate of merger and send the certificate to the state bank and a copy of it to the superintendent.
