     (3) Shareholders of a corporation undergoing reorganization do not have dissenters' rights except to the extent provided in the reorganization plan.
     (4) This section does not apply after entry of a final decree in the reorganization proceeding even though the court retains jurisdiction of the proceeding for limited purposes unrelated to consummation of the reorganization plan.
