Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
(1) If the banking board has reason
to believe that the capital of any bank is inadequate under the rules of the banking board, the
banking board may ascertain the facts and furnish the bank with a copy of its determination. If
the banking board determines an inadequacy of capital based upon such determination, the
commissioner, with the approval of the banking board, may direct the state bank to levy an
assessment in a designated amount upon the holders of record of common stock to remedy an
inadequacy of capital. Upon receipt of an order to levy an assessment, the directors shall cause to
be sent to all holders of common stock, at their addresses, a copy of the order and a copy of this
subsection (1). If an assessment is not paid within the time prescribed in the order or such shorter
period as the directors decide, but not less than thirty days, the state bank may, within sixty days
thereafter as the banking board may prescribe in its order, offer the shares of the defaulting
stockholders for sale at public auction or private sale at a price that shall not be less than the
amount of the assessment and the cost of the sale. Any excess shall be paid to the prior owners.
Except under circumstances where section 11-103-203 applies, the method of collection
provided in this section shall be the sole method of collecting assessments. If an assessment is
not paid within ninety days after the date of the order to levy or at such other date as may be
specified in the order, but in no event less than thirty days, the commissioner may, with the
approval of the banking board, proceed pursuant to part 8 of this article; however, for good cause
shown to the banking board by the affected bank, the banking board may extend the ninety-day
limit.
(2) If the banking board determines that the capital or reserves of any bank are
inadequate, the banking board may order the bank not to make new loans or discounts.
