(b) Factors considered. In determining whether to approve the plan of reorganization, the superintendent shall consider:

(i) whether the formation of the mutual holding company would not be detrimental to the interests of the shareholders of the mutual savings and loan association proposing to reorganize as provided in section four hundred forty-seven of this article;

(ii) whether disapproval is necessary to prevent unsafe or unsound banking practices;

(iii) whether the interest of the public will be served by the proposed reorganization;

(iv) whether the financial or management resources of the mutual savings and loan association proposing to reorganize as provided in section four hundred forty-seven of this article warrant disapproval of the proposed plan of reorganization; (v) whether the mutual savings and loan association proposing to reorganize as provided in section four hundred forty-seven of this article fails to furnish any information required under paragraph (a) of this subdivision or furnished information containing any statement which, at the time and in the circumstances under which it was made, was false or misleading with respect to any material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not false or misleading.

(c) When the superintendent shall have determined to approve or disapprove the plan of reorganization, the superintendent shall so advise the mutual savings and loan association in writing and shall endorse approval on an organization certificate and cause it to be filed in the office of the superintendent and with the clerk of the county in which the principal office of the mutual savings and loan association is located. Upon the filing of the organization certificate the existence of the mutual holding company shall commence. As used in this article, the term "organization certificate" shall include an amended organization certificate. 3. Approval by shareholders.
