26-2713. SURRENDER OF LICENSE. (1) Upon approval of a two-thirds (2/3) vote of its board of directors and after complying with subsection (2) of this section, a licensee may apply to the director to have the director accept the surrender of the licensee’s license. If the director determines that the requirements of this section have been satisfied, the director shall approve the application unless in the opinion of the director the purpose of the application is to evade a current or prospective action by the director pursuant to this chapter.
(2) Not less than sixty (60) days before filing an application with the director under subsection (1) of this section, a licensee shall notify all of its shareholders and all of its creditors of its intention to file the application. Each creditor shall be notified of the right to comment to the director. Each shareholder shall be notified of the right to file with the licensee an objection to the proposed surrender of the license within the sixty (60) day period and shall be advised that, if the shareholder files an objection, the shareholder should send a copy of the objection to the director. If shareholders representing twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding voting securities of the licensee file an objection, the licensee shall not proceed with the application under subsection (1) of this section unless the application is approved by a vote of shareholders representing two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding voting securities of the licensee.
