Sec. 2. Any bank, trust company, corporate fiduciary, savings bank organized after December 31, 1992, bank of discount and deposit, or savings association may liquidate its affairs and dissolve in the manner prescribed in this chapter. Whenever the board of directors, by a resolution adopted by a majority vote of the members of such board, shall deem it advisable to submit the question of dissolution, or whenever the board of directors shall be requested in writing by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock to submit the question of dissolution, the board of directors shall submit the question of dissolving the corporation to a vote of the shareholders of the corporation entitled to vote at such meeting as may be designated in such request, or, in the absence of such request or of such designation, in such resolution. The designated meeting may be an annual or a special meeting of the shareholders. If the designated meeting is an annual meeting, notice of the question of dissolution shall be included in the notice of the annual meeting. If the designated meeting is a special meeting of the shareholders, such special meeting shall be called by the board of directors, and notice of such meeting shall be given at the time and in the manner provided in IC 28-13-14-6. The dissolution shall be authorized, subject to the provisions of section 3 of this chapter, upon receiving the affirmative votes of the holders of two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding shares of stock of the corporation unless the corporation is a savings association authorized to dissolve by the provisions of this section, in which case the affirmative votes of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of stock shall be sufficient and dissolution shall thereby be authorized.
