(c) The reorganization plan does not protect the interests of deposit account holders of the reorganizing savings bank.
(d) The financial or managerial resources of the reorganizing savings bank or any acquiree savings bank warrant disapproval.
(e) After the proposed capitalization of the mutual holding company, any savings bank subsidiary would fail to meet the requirements of ss. 214.40 and 214.43, Stats.
(f) A stock issuance, proposed in connection with a mutual holding company reorganization, fails to meet the standards established by s. DFI-SB 22.07 or 22.08.

(h) The proposed reorganization would violate any law or rule.
(2) CAPITALIZATION.
(a) The division shall disapprove a proposal by a reorganizing savings bank or an acquiree savings bank to capitalize a mutual holding company if, immediately following the reorganization, the resulting or acquiree savings bank would fail to meet the capital requirements of ss. 214.40 and 214.43, Stats.
