§237.9.  Limitations on compensation of directors, officers, agents, and employees

Except as set forth in the plan of reorganization approved by the qualified voters and the commissioner or in a stock-based compensation program or arrangement using options or other securities previously registered with the commissioner pursuant to R.S. 22:88 or any successor statute, no director, officer, agent, or employee of the reorganizing mutual shall receive any fee, commission, or other valuable consideration, other than his regular salary and compensation, that is contingent upon the plan of reorganization becoming approved or effective or is based upon aiding, promoting, or assisting in the approval or effectuation of the plan of reorganization.  This Section shall not prohibit compensation programs or arrangements including programs and arrangements involving the use of the stock of the reorganized company or its parent corporation, which are to become effective simultaneously with the plan of reorganization or thereafter, provided such programs and arrangements are contained in the plan of reorganization approved by the qualified voters and the commissioner or in a program or arrangement using options or other securities previously registered with the commissioner pursuant to R.S. 22:88 or any successor statute. This Section shall not be deemed to prohibit such a program or arrangement from being adopted after the effective date of a reorganization.
