(b) If the remaining assets are not liquid or if they otherwise require continuing administration, the receiver may call a meeting of the shareholders 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 of record at their last known addresses.
(c) At the meeting, the shareholders shall appoint one or more agents to take over the affairs to continue the liquidation for the benefit of the shareholders. Voting privileges are governed by the bank's bylaws and certificate of formation. 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.
