Persons entitled to correct unsafe conditions and practices; effect of failure to correct; receivership and liquidation of assets.

1. If the Commissioner takes possession of the property of a mortgage banker pursuant to NRS 645E.630, the licensee, officers, directors, partners, associates or stockholders of the mortgage banker may, within 60 days after the date on which the Commissioner takes possession of the property, make good any deficit in the assets or capital of the mortgage banker or remedy any unsafe and injurious conditions or practices of the mortgage banker.

2. At the expiration of the 60-day period, if the deficiency in assets or capital has not been made good or the unsafe and injurious conditions or practices remedied, the Commissioner may apply to the court to be appointed receiver and proceed to liquidate the assets of the mortgage banker which are located in this state in the same manner as now provided by law for liquidation of a private corporation in receivership.

3. No other person may be appointed receiver by any court without first giving the Commissioner ample notice of his application.

5. The expenses of the receiver and compensation of counsel, as well as all expenditures required in the liquidation proceedings, must be fixed by the Commissioner subject to the approval of the court and, upon certification of the Commissioner, must be paid out of the money in his hands as the receiver.
