The proposed issue and sale of securities will be approved by the commission where it finds that the same is consistent with the public good. Such approval shall extend to the amount of the issue authorized and the purpose or purposes to which the securities or the proceeds thereof are to be applied, and shall be subject to such reasonable terms and conditions as the commission may find to be necessary in the public interest; provided, however, that the provisions of RSA 293-A shall be observed by corporations organized under the laws of this state in respect of the corporate authorization required and of other formalities to be observed.
