(1) A corporation's articles of incorporation may be amended without action by the board of directors or members to carry out a plan of reorganization ordered or decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction under federal statute if the articles of incorporation after amendment contain only provisions required or permitted by Section 79-11-137.

(c) The date of the court's order or decree approving the articles of amendment;
(d) The title of the reorganization proceeding in which the order or decree was entered; and

(3) Members of a corporation undergoing reorganization do not have dissenters' rights except as and to the extent provided in the reorganization plan.
(4) This section does not apply after entry of a final decree in the reorganization proceeding even though the court retains jurisdiction of the proceeding for limited purposes unrelated to consummation of the reorganization plan.
