If capital notes, debentures, or any other instruments of indebtedness are converted into shares of common or preferred stock, a verified certificate executed by the president of the bank stating the amount of the conversion, and other information with respect to the conversion as the commissioner may require, shall be filed in the office of the commissioner.
