Sec. 2. Each application for approval of a proposed stock issuance plan must state and explain the proposed sales price or the price range if an exact price cannot be determined. The application must do the following:

(1) Support the reasonableness of the proposed price or price range by independent persons who are experienced in corporate valuations.

(2) Indicate the basis for determination of the income to be derived from the proceeds of the stock sale, demonstrate the appropriateness of the earnings multiple used, and include all assumptions regarding future earnings growth, if the proposed price or price range is based upon a capitalization of the projected income of the savings bank after the issuance of the stock. If the proposed price or price range is based upon a comparison of the stock of the savings bank with the issued and outstanding stock of other stock savings banks or similar institutions, those institutions must be reasonably comparable to the savings bank in terms of size, asset composition, market area, competitive conditions, profit history, expected future earnings, and other stated relevant factors.

(3) State the amount of the discount and explain how that discount was determined, if the proposed price or price range includes any discount due to the minority status of the stock to be offered.

(4) State any additional information about the pricing that the department may request.
