(a) A trust company may amend its articles of incorporation or bylaws in a manner consistent with its articles, its bylaws, AS 10.06 , and this chapter by a vote of its shareholders representing at least a majority of the capital at a regular meeting or at a special meeting called for that purpose. The trust company shall file a written notice of an amendment with the department.
