A. The receiving bank shall require each stockholder of each merging bank to surrender his certificates of capital stock of each such bank, and shall, upon such surrender, issue or deliver in lieu thereof, certificates for such number of its own shares of capital stock and such number of shares of capital stock of a company, as such term is defined in paragraph (3) of section 132 (C. 17:9A-132), and such amount of capital notes or cash, as such stockholder is entitled to receive pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement.
