Sec. 6. (a) While a credit union is in conservatorship under this chapter, the department may require the conservator to set aside and make available for:
(1) withdrawal by members and depositors; or
(2) payment to other creditors;
on a pro rata basis, any amounts that, in the opinion of the department, may be safely and prudently used for the purposes described in subdivisions (1) through (2).
(b) The department may permit a conservator appointed under this chapter to receive new shares and deposits after the credit union is placed in conservatorship. Shares and deposits received by a conservator while a credit union is in conservatorship are not subject to any limitation with respect to payment or withdrawal. The conservator shall segregate any:
(1) shares or deposits; or
(2) new assets acquired on account of shares and deposits;
received after the credit union is placed in conservatorship from the shares, deposits, and assets held by the credit union at the time the credit union is placed in conservatorship.
(c) A conservator shall not use any shares, deposits, or assets received after the credit union is placed in conservatorship to:
(1) liquidate any indebtedness of the credit union existing at the time the credit union is placed in conservatorship; or
(2) pay any subsequent indebtedness incurred to liquidate any indebtedness of the credit union existing at the time the credit union is placed in conservatorship.
(d) Any shares or deposits received after a credit union is placed in conservatorship shall be:
(1) kept in cash;
(2) invested in direct obligations of the United States; or
(3) deposited in depository institutions designated by the department.
(e) If a credit union placed in conservatorship under this chapter is returned to the control of the credit union's board of directors, the protections provided under subsections (b), (c), and (d) (with respect to shares and deposits received while the credit union is in conservatorship) do not apply after fifteen (15) days after the date control of the credit union is returned to the board. Before returning control of the credit union to the credit union's board, the conservator shall publish a notice, in a form approved by the department, stating:
(1) the date on which the affairs of the credit union will be returned to the control of the credit union's board; and
(2) that the protections provided under subsections (b), (c), and (d) (with respect to shares and deposits received while the credit union is in conservatorship) do not apply after fifteen (15) days after the date identified under subdivision (1).
The conservator shall send, by United States mail, a copy of the notice to every person that purchased shares or deposited money in the credit union after the credit union is placed in conservatorship and before control of the credit union is returned to the credit union's board.
