representative capacities. The approval may be obtained in connection with the
proceedings authorized under section 6-07.2-06.

company, to file any and all documents with the secretary of state necessary to
terminate the subsidiary trust company's corporate existence under applicable
corporate law.
6-07.2-17. Emergency temporary suspension or conservatorship.
1. If upon the examination or investigation of an institution regulated by the
commissioner, the commissioner determines the laws are not being fully observed,
that any irregularities are being practiced, or that the institution's capital has been or is
in danger of being impaired, the commissioner shall give immediate notice of such
determination to the officers and directors of the institutions. In addition, if it is deemed
necessary in order to conserve the assets of the institution or to protect the interests of
depositors and creditors of the institution, the commissioner may do any one or more
of the following:
a. Temporarily suspend the right of the institution to receive any further deposits;
b. Temporarily close the bank, for a period not exceeding sixty days, which period
may be further extended for one or more sixty-day periods as the commissioner
may deem necessary;
c. Require the officers and directors of the bank to liquidate its outstanding loans
insofar as required;

the commissioner may deem necessary, an institution facing an emergency due
to withdrawal of deposits, a liquidity event in which the institution is unable to
continue operations, a cyber- or technology-related incident, or otherwise, or,
without closing the institution, grant the institution the right to suspend or limit the
withdrawal of deposits, for such period as the commissioner may determine.

the commissioner determines a receiver for the institution should be appointed, the
commissioner may apply for the appointment of a receiver to take charge of the
business affairs and assets of the institution and to wind up the institution's affairs as
provided in this chapter.
3. A bank or credit union may request a hearing before the state banking board or state
credit union board within ten days of the emergency temporary suspension or
conservatorship to review the factual basis used to issue the emergency temporary
suspension or conservatorship. The decision made by the state banking board or state
Page No. 6
credit union board during the hearing is final. If a hearing is not requested, the initial
decision of the commissioner is final.

submitted to the commissioner in the manner and form that the commissioner may
prescribe, must include the information set forth in this section, and must contain such
additional information the commissioner may require. The application must include
duplicate copies of a resolution authorizing the dissolution and duplicate copies of a
certificate, verified by the applicant's president or chief executive officer or a vice
president, stating the facts pertaining to the resolution and that the applicant's liabilities
have been paid in full. Each duplicate certificate must have annexed to the duplicate,
over the official signatures, evidence showing:
a. The date on which the resolution was authorized by the affirmative vote of the
holders of at least a simple majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on
the resolution;
b. The number of shares of each class entitled to vote on the resolution which were
outstanding on the date of the stockholders' meeting;
c. The number of shares of each class entitled to vote on the resolution whose
owners were present in person or by proxy;

e. The manner in which the meeting was called and the time and manner of giving
notice, with a certification that the meeting was lawfully called and held.
2. Upon receipt of the application, the commissioner shall investigate the merits of the
application. If the commissioner is satisfied the application is complete and all
applicable provisions of law have been complied with, the commissioner shall cause
an examination to be made of the applicant institution for the purpose of verifying the
payment of all the applicant's liabilities. If the examination satisfies the commissioner
that all of the applicant's liabilities have been paid, the commissioner shall endorse
one copy of the certificate with the commissioner's statement that the institution is
voluntarily liquidating. The return of the endorsed copy of the certificate operates to
free the institution from further examination and to authorize the institution, under the
original corporate name of the institution, to sue and be sued, to execute conveyances
and other instruments, to take, hold, and own property, and to do all such other things
as may be necessary to realize upon the institution's remaining assets for the pro rata
benefit of the institution's stockholders, but not to engage or continue in any new or
other business under the institution's charter or otherwise. The liquidation must
proceed as expeditiously as possible, and upon conclusion, the institution shall
surrender its charter. In lieu of continuing the liquidation under the original corporate
name, the institution may transfer the remaining assets to a trustee agreed upon by
the stockholders by a majority vote and upon so doing shall surrender the institution's
charter.
6-07.2-19. Voluntary liquidation of a credit union.
1. A credit union may go into voluntary liquidation following a vote of the majority of the
board of directors and approval by the majority of its members in writing or by a vote in
favor of the liquidation by a majority of the members of the credit union at a regular
meeting of the members or at a special meeting called for that purpose.
a. When authorization for liquidation is to be obtained at a meeting of members:
(1) Notice in writing must be given to each member at least ten days before the
meeting and the notice must inform members they have the right to vote on
the proposed liquidation.

If approval by a majority of all members is not obtained at the meeting of
members, authorization for voluntary liquidation may be obtained by having a
majority of members sign a statement in substantially the following form:
We the undersigned members of the _____ Credit Union, Charter No.
_____, hereby request the dissolution of our credit union.
The board of directors of a credit union in voluntary liquidation:
a. Is responsible for conserving the assets, for expediting the liquidation, and for
equitably distributing the assets to members.
b. Shall determine all persons handling or having access to funds of the credit union
are adequately covered by surety bond.
c. Shall appoint a custodian for the credit union's records that are to be retained for
five years after the charter is canceled.
d. May appoint a liquidating agent and delegate part or all of these responsibilities to
the agent and may authorize reasonable compensation for the agent's services. A
liquidating agent must be adequately bonded for faithful performance of the
agent's duties, and the coverage must remain in effect or the discovery period
extended for at least four months after the final distribution of assets.
The supervisory committee, a certified public accountant hired by the supervisory
committee, or if the bylaws do not establish a supervisory committee, a certified public
accountant hired by the board of directors, is responsible for making periodic audits of
the credit union's records, at least quarterly, during the period of liquidation.
Within three days after the decision of the board of directors to submit the question of
liquidation to the members, the president shall notify the commissioner and the
regional director of the national credit union administration in writing, setting forth in
detail:
a. The reasons for the proposed action;
b. The previous month-end balance sheet and income statement; and
c. A written plan for the liquidation of assets, payment of creditors, and payment of
shares to be completed within one year of the date of membership approval to
liquidate.
Within three days after the action of the members on the question of liquidation, the
president shall notify the commissioner and the regional director of the national credit
union administration in writing as to whether a majority of the members approved the
proposed liquidation.
Within ten days of the decision to liquidate by the board of directors, a notice of the
decision must be handed to each member, electronically distributed, or mailed to the
member's last-known address to confirm in writing the shares and deposits held by the
member in the credit union and the loans owed by the member to the credit union.
Within ten days of the approval of a majority of the members of a credit union of a
proposal to liquidate, the board of directors of the credit union shall have prepared and
mailed to all creditors a notice of liquidation containing instructions to present claims to
the credit union within ninety days for payment. New creditor claims subsequent to this
notice which are necessary for the continued operation of the credit union during
liquidation must continue to be paid upon authorization of the board of directors or
liquidating agent.
Immediately upon the decision of the membership to liquidate, the credit union may
continue to do all things under the original corporate name of the institution, to sue and
be sued, to execute conveyances and other instruments, to take, hold, and own
property, and to do all other things as may be necessary to realize upon the
institution's remaining assets for the benefit of the institution's members, but not to
engage or continue in any new or other business under the institution's charter or
otherwise. At the discretion of the board of directors or the liquidating agent,
transactions upon membership transactional accounts may continue to be honored up
to the federal insurance limit until the accounts are sold or otherwise liquidated.
At the commencement of voluntary liquidation of a credit union, the treasurer or agent
conducting the liquidation shall file with the commissioner a financial and statistical
Page No. 8

report and a schedule showing the name, book number or account number, share
balance, and loan balance of each member.
Credit unions in the process of voluntary liquidation shall file with the commissioner a
financial and statistical report as of December thirty-first or within thirty days after such
date. Additional reports, as determined by the commissioner to be necessary, must be
furnished promptly on written request.
When deemed advisable by the commissioner, an examination of the books and
records of a credit union may be made before, during, or following completion of
voluntary liquidation. The commissioner shall set fees for the examination at an hourly
rate sufficient to cover all reasonable expenses of the department of financial
institutions associated with the examination. Fees must be collected by the
commissioner and deposited in the financial institutions regulatory fund.
If at any time during the liquidation of credit union assets, it is found the value of
remaining assets will not be sufficient to cover the claims of creditors and
shareholders, the board of directors or, if appointed, the liquidating agent shall
immediately notify the commissioner and the regional director of the national credit
union administration. Further liquidation of credit union assets or distributions to
shareholders after notice requires written approval from the commissioner.
With the written approval of the commissioner, a partial distribution of the credit union's
assets may be made to its members from cash funds available on authorization by its
board of directors or by a duly authorized liquidating agent whose appointment
specifically includes the authority. Partial distributions cannot exceed the national
credit union share insurance limit.
When all assets of the credit union have been converted to cash or found to be
worthless and all loans and debts owing to it have been collected, sold, or found to be
uncollectible and all obligations of the credit union have been paid, with the exception
of amounts due its members:
a. The books must be closed and the pro rata distribution to members computed.
This computation must be based on the total amount in each member's share
accounts as of the date the board of directors voted to voluntarily liquidate.
b. The amount of gain or loss must be entered in each member's share account and
should be entered in the member's passbook or statement of account.
c. Promptly, funds must be distributed to each member. The funds must be mailed
to such members at their last-known addresses, electronically transmitted to the
members designated account, or handed to them in person.
d. The passbooks or written confirmations submitted by members to verify balances
must be retained with the credit union records.
e. Unclaimed share accounts subject to the escheat or abandoned property laws of
the state or the state of the members' residence must be paid to the state as
required by such laws.
f. The commissioner must be promptly notified of the date final distribution of assets
to the members is started.
g. In the event of a loss on members share accounts, a claim must be submitted by
the board of directors or the liquidating agent if appointed, to the national credit
union administration, private share insurance if available, and bonding company.
Within one hundred twenty days after the final distribution to members is started, the
credit union shall furnish to the commissioner's office a schedule of unpaid claims. The
board of directors of the credit union or the liquidating agent if appointed shall report
money in the account of a member who failed to surrender their passbooks or confirm
their balances, final distribution checks not cashed within one hundred twenty days,
and any unpaid claims to the unclaimed property division of the board of university and
school lands pursuant to chapter 47-30.2.
