A. Subject to the other provisions of this Part:

(2) Beginning July 1, 1987: (a) a regional savings and loan holding company or regional association may acquire a Louisiana savings and loan holding company, a Louisiana association, or another regional savings and loan holding company having a Louisiana association subsidiary, and (b) a regional savings and loan holding company having a Louisiana association subsidiary may acquire another regional savings and loan holding company; provided that the commissioner determines that the law of the state in which the regional savings and loan holding company or regional association has its principal place of business permits Louisiana savings and loan holding companies or associations to acquire savings and loan holding companies or associations in that state.

(3) Beginning January 1, 1989: (a) an out-of-state savings and loan holding company or out-of-state association may acquire a Louisiana savings and loan holding company, a Louisiana association, or another out-of-state savings and loan holding company having a Louisiana association subsidiary, and (b) an out-of-state savings and loan holding company having a Louisiana association subsidiary may acquire another out-of-state savings and loan holding company; provided that the commissioner determines that the law of the state in which the out-of-state savings and loan holding company or out-of-state association has its principal place of business permits Louisiana savings and loan holding companies or associations to acquire savings and loan companies or associations in that state.

B. Notwithstanding anything contained in Subsection (A) of this Section, no out-of-state savings and loan holding company or out-of-state association may use the provisions of this Part to operate branches of an association in this state unless the association is a Louisiana association.

C. The commissioner may approve an acquisition of a Louisiana association that will be lawful under the provisions of this Chapter but for the fact that the date on which the acquisition is to occur is before the authorized date, if all of the following exist with respect to the Louisiana association:

(1) It has an adjusted net worth-to-assets ratio of less than one percent, according to the latest examination by the office of financial institutions or the Federal Home Loan Bank Board.

(2) It is the conclusion of the commissioner that the association has major and serious problems or unsafe and unsound conditions which are not being satisfactorily addressed or resolved.
