(1) If at the close of any dividend period the guaranty fund of an Oregon nonstock bank is impaired or is less than 10 percent of the amount due to depositors, a sum not less than five percent of the net earnings for the period shall be deducted from the net earnings and credited to its guaranty fund, after declaration of dividends, if the deduction will not compel the Oregon nonstock bank to reduce its dividends to depositors below the rate of one percent per annum.
(2) If the guaranty fund accumulated from earnings equals or exceeds 10 percent of the amount due depositors and the net earnings for a dividend period are sufficient, the minimum dividend shall be four percent, unless a smaller percentage is authorized by rule promulgated by the Director of the Department of Consumer and Business Services.
