In any case in which at least ninety percent (90%) of the outstanding shares of each class of stock of a corporation or corporations, other than a corporation which has in its certificate of incorporation the provision required by division (1) of subparagraph g of paragraph 1 of subsection G of Section 1081 of this title of which class there are outstanding shares that, absent this subsection, would be entitled to vote on such merger, is owned by a domestic corporation or a foreign corporation, and one or more of such corporations is a domestic corporation, unless the laws of the jurisdiction or jurisdictions under which the foreign corporation or corporations are organized prohibit such merger, the parent corporation may either merge the subsidiary corporation or corporations into itself and assume all of its or their obligations, or merge itself, or itself and one or more of the other subsidiary corporations, into one of the other subsidiary corporations by executing, acknowledging, and filing, in accordance with the provisions of Section 1007 of this title, a certificate of ownership and merger setting forth a copy of the resolution of its board of directors to merge and the date of its adoption; provided, however, that in case the parent corporation shall not own all the outstanding stock of all the subsidiary corporations which are parties to the merger, the resolution of the board of directors of the parent corporation shall state the terms and conditions of the merger, including the securities, cash, property, or rights to be issued, paid, delivered, or granted by the surviving corporation upon surrender of each share of the subsidiary corporation or corporations not owned by the parent corporation or the cancellation of some or all of the shares. Any of the terms of the resolution of the board of directors to so merge may be made dependent upon facts ascertainable outside of such resolution, provided that the manner in which such facts shall operate upon the terms of the resolution is clearly and expressly set forth in the resolution. The term "facts", as used in the preceding sentence includes, but is not limited to, the occurrence of any event including a determination or action by any person or body, including the corporation. If the parent corporation is not the surviving corporation, the resolution shall include provision for the pro rata issuance of stock of the surviving corporation to the holders of the stock of the parent corporation on surrender of any certificates therefor, and the certificate of ownership and merger shall state that the proposed merger has been approved by a majority of the outstanding stock of the parent corporation entitled to vote thereon at a meeting thereof duly called and held after twenty (20) days' notice of the purpose of the meeting is mailed to each shareholder at the shareholder's address as it appears on the records of the corporation if the parent corporation is a domestic corporation or shall state that the proposed merger has been adopted, approved, certified, executed, and acknowledged by the parent corporation in accordance with the laws under which it is organized if the parent corporation is a foreign corporation. If the surviving corporation is a foreign corporation, the provisions of subsection D of Section 1082 of this title or subsection C of Section 1087 of this title, as applicable, shall also apply to a merger pursuant to the provisions of this section, and the terms and conditions of the merger shall obligate the surviving corporation to provide the agreement, and take the actions, required by subsection D of Section 1082 of this title or subsection C of Section 1087 of this title, as applicable. B. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 1 of subsection A of Section 1006 of this title, if the surviving corporation is an Oklahoma corporation, it may change its corporate name by the inclusion of a provision to that effect in the resolution of merger adopted by the directors of the parent corporation and set forth in the certificate of ownership and merger, and upon the effective date of the merger, the name of the corporation shall be changed. C. The provisions of subsection D of Section 1081 of this title shall apply to a merger pursuant to the provisions of this section, and the provisions of subsection E of Section 1081 of this title shall apply to a merger pursuant to the provisions of this section in which the surviving corporation is the subsidiary corporation and is a domestic corporation. For purposes of this subsection, references to "agreement of merger" in subsections D and E of Section 1081 of this title shall mean the resolution of merger adopted by the board of directors of the parent corporation. Any merger which effects any changes other than those authorized by the provisions of this section or made applicable by this subsection shall be accomplished in accordance with the provisions of Section 1081, 1082, 1083.1, 1085 or 1087 of this title. The provisions of Section 1091 of this title shall not apply to any merger effected pursuant to the provisions of this section, except as provided for in subsection D of this section. D. In the event all of the stock of a subsidiary Oklahoma corporation party to a merger effected pursuant to the provisions of this section is not owned by the parent corporation immediately prior to the merger, the shareholders of the subsidiary Oklahoma corporation party to the merger shall have appraisal rights as set forth in Section 1091 of this title. E. This section shall apply to nonstock corporations if the parent corporation is such a corporation and is the surviving corporation of the merger; provided, however, that references to the directors of the parent corporation shall be deemed to be references to members of the governing body of the parent corporation, and references to the board of directors of the parent corporation shall be deemed to be references to the governing body of the parent corporation. F. Nothing in this section shall be deemed to authorize the merger of a corporation with a charitable nonstock corporation, if the charitable status of such charitable nonstock corporation would thereby be lost or impaired.
