§ 36.313. EXCESS ASSETS. (a) If bank assets remain after the receiver has provided for unclaimed distributions and all of the liabilities of the bank in liquidation, the receiver shall distribute the remaining assets to the shareholders or participants of the bank. (b) If the remaining assets are not liquid or if they otherwise require continuing administration, the receiver may call a meeting of the shareholders or participants and participant-transferees of the bank. The receiver shall give notice of the meeting: (1) in a newspaper of general circulation in the county where the home office of the bank was located; and (2) by written notice to the shareholders or participants and participant-transferees of record at their last known addresses. (c) At the meeting, the shareholders or participants shall appoint one or more agents to take over the affairs to continue the liquidation for the benefit of the shareholders or participants and participant-transferees. Voting privileges are governed by the bank's bylaws and articles of association. If a quorum cannot be obtained at the meeting, the banking commissioner shall appoint an agent. An agent appointed under this subsection shall execute and file with the court a bond approved by the court, conditioned on the faithful performance of all the duties of the trust. (d) Under order of the court the receiver shall transfer and deliver to the agent or agents for continued liquidation under the court's supervision all assets of the bank remaining in the receiver's hands. The court shall discharge the receiver from further liability to the bank and its depositors, creditors, shareholders, participants, and participant-transferees. (e) The bank may not resume business and the charter of the bank is void on the date the court issues the order directing the receiver to transfer and deliver the remaining assets of the bank to the agent or agents.
