(a) General rule.--When an interest exchange in which the acquired association is a domestic entity becomes effective, all of the following apply:

(1) Interests in the acquired association are exchanged or canceled as provided in the plan of exchange, and the interest holders of those interests are entitled only to the rights provided to them under the plan and to any dissenters rights they have pursuant to section 317 (relating to contractual dissenters rights in entity transactions) or 343(d) (relating to approval of interest exchange).

(2) The acquiring association becomes the interest holder of the interests in the acquired association stated in the plan of interest exchange to be acquired by the acquiring entity.

(3) The public organic record, if any, of the acquired association is amended to the extent provided in the statement of interest exchange.

(4) The private organic rules of the acquired association that are to be in record form, if any, are amended to the extent provided in the plan of interest exchange.

(b) No dissolution rights.--Except as provided in the organic rules of the acquired association, the interest exchange shall not give rise to any rights that an interest holder, governor or third party would have upon a dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the acquired association.

(c) New interest holder liability.--When an interest exchange becomes effective, a person that becomes subject to interest holder liability with respect to an association as a result of the interest exchange has interest holder liability only to the extent provided by the organic law of the association and only for those debts, obligations and other liabilities that arise after the interest exchange becomes effective.

(d) Prior interest holder liability.--When an interest exchange becomes effective, the interest holder liability of a person that ceases to hold an interest in a domestic acquired association with respect to which the person had interest holder liability is as follows:

(1) The interest exchange does not discharge any interest holder liability under the organic law of the domestic acquired association to the extent the interest holder liability arose before the interest exchange became effective.

(2) The person does not have interest holder liability under the organic law of the domestic acquired association for any debt, obligation or other liability that arises after the interest exchange becomes effective.

(3) The organic law of the domestic acquired association continues to apply to the release, collection or discharge of any interest holder liability preserved under paragraph (1) as if the interest exchange had not occurred.

(4) The person has whatever rights of contribution from any other person as are provided by law other than this title or the organic law or organic rules of the domestic acquired association with respect to any interest holder liability preserved under paragraph (1) as if the interest exchange had not occurred.
