insurance and providing for the payment of total and permanent
disability claims to living members, upon the assessment plan, may be
reincorporated or reorganized under the provisions of this chapter
under its existing corporate name, by filing with the insurance

by them that such corporation, association, or society, having insured

accumulated the fund required by section 7 of this chapter, or having

the fund required by section 11 of this chapter, and that such funds are
safely invested and held for the purposes for which the same were
accumulated, as provided in the bylaws of such corporation, association
or society, whereupon the commissioner, if approved by him, shall file
the same, together with his certificate of such approval, with the
secretary of state, who shall issue to such corporation, association, or
society a certificate of such reincorporation or reorganization, under the
seal of the state, and attach thereto copies of all papers so filed with the
secretary of state, and the same shall be recorded in the office of the

existing corporation, association or society to incorporate or
reincorporate under this chapter, and any such domestic corporation,
association, or society may continue to exercise all the rights, powers,
and privileges not inconsistent with this chapter, pursuant to its articles
of incorporation or association, the same as if incorporated or
