     (1) At any regular meeting of the shareholders or members of any such association or at any special meeting of the shareholders or members of such association, in either case called to consider such action and held in accordance with the laws governing such association, such shareholders or members, by an affirmative vote of the majority of the shareholders or members, in person or by proxy, may declare by resolution the determination to convert the association into a federal savings and loan association.
     (2) A copy of the minutes of the meeting of the shareholders or members verified by the affidavit of the president or vice-president and the secretary of the meeting shall be filed with the department within 10 days after the meeting. The verified copy of the minutes of such meeting when so filed shall be presumptive evidence of the holding and of the action of such meeting.
     (3) Within a reasonable time and without any unnecessary delay after the adjournment of such meeting of shareholders or members, such association shall take any action necessary to make it a federal savings and loan association, and within 10 days after receipt of the federal charter there shall be filed with the department a copy of the charter issued to such association by the federal home loan bank board or a certificate showing the organization of such association as a federal savings and loan association certified by or on behalf of the federal home loan bank board. Upon the filing of such instrument such association shall cease to be a state association and shall thereafter be a federal savings and loan association.
