§881. Commissioner may examine association

A.(1) The commissioner, at any time he deems it expedient or necessary, may proceed to make an examination of the books and records of the association.

(2) If, after the examination, he believes that the capital of the association is impaired, he shall immediately call a special meeting of its board of directors, notify them of the result of the investigation and of his findings, certify to the percentage of the impairment of the capital at the date of examination, and shall at once direct the board of directors to scale the face value of its outstanding shares in such amounts as will reduce its total liabilities to the aggregate value of its resources.

(3) In lieu of the scaling of shares, the commissioner may direct the board of directors to take such steps as he deems wise and expedient to protect the best interests of all concerned.

B. The commissioner may cause an appraisement to be made of any property owned by any association or on which any association has a privilege or mortgage at any time that he deems it expedient or necessary for the protection of its creditors, members, or stockholders, or for the determination of its solvency, or for the purpose of determining whether or not earnings, interest, or dividends declared by it are justified by its condition. This appraisement shall be made by one or more appraisers selected or appointed by the commissioner. The fee of the appraiser shall be paid by the association whose property or security has been appraised.
