N.D. Cent. Code § 26.1-12.1-03
A domestic mutual insurance company, upon the approval of the commissioner, may reorganize by merging its policyholders' member interests into a mutual insurance holding company formed according to section 26.1-12.1-02 and continuing the corporate existence of the reorganizing insurer as a stock insurance company subsidiary of the mutual insurance holding company. The commissioner, if satisfied that the reorganization meets the standards in section 26.1-12.1-06, may approve the proposed merger or may require as a condition of approval the modification of the proposed merger as the commissioner finds necessary for the merger to meet the standards in section 26.1-12.1-06. The commissioner shall retain jurisdiction over the mutual insurance holding company and the reorganized insurer organized according to this section to assure that the policyholders' and members' interests are protected.
All of the initial shares of the capital stock of the reorganized insurance company must be issued to the mutual insurance holding company, or to an intermediate stock holding company that is wholly owned by the mutual insurance holding company. The membership interests of the policyholders of the reorganizing insurer must be converted into membership interests in the mutual insurance holding company. Policyholders of the reorganized insurance company must become members of the mutual insurance holding company according to the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the mutual insurance holding company. A merger as contemplated by this section is not subject to chapter 26.1-07.
