Section 91.206 - Underserved Area Credit Unions - Secondary Capital AccountsA credit union that has been approved for a designation as a Underserved Area Credit Union pursuant to § RSA 122.014, Finance Code may issue secondary capital accounts to members or nonmembers of the credit union on the following conditions:
(1) Prior to offering secondary capital accounts, the credit union shall file an application for approval with the commissioner. The application shall be supported by a written plan for use of the funds in the secondary capital accounts and subsequent liquidity needs to meet repayment requirements upon maturity of the accounts, along with such other information and data as the commissioner may require.(2) The secondary capital account must be established as an uninsured secondary capital account or other form of non-share account, and shall not be insured by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund or any governmental or private entity.(3) The secondary capital account must mature no earlier than five years.(4) The secondary capital account shall not be redeemable prior to maturity.(5) The secondary capital account holder's claim against the credit union must be subordinated to all other claims, including those of shareholders, creditors and the credit union's insuring organization.(6) Funds deposited into the secondary capital account, including interest accrued and paid into the capital account, must be available to cover the credit union's realized operating losses that exceed its net available reserves and undivided earnings (i.e., reserves and undivided earnings exclusive of allowance accounts for loan losses), and to the extent funds are so used, the credit union shall not restore or replenish the account. The credit union may, in lieu of paying interest into the secondary capital account, pay interest accrued on the secondary capital account directly to the secondary capital account holder or into a separate account from which the secondary capital account holder may make withdrawals. Losses realized shall be distributed pro-rata among all secondary capital accounts held by the credit union at the time the losses are realized.(7) The secondary capital account may not be pledged or provided by the account holder as security on a loan or other obligation with the credit union or any other party.(8) In the event of merger or other voluntary dissolution of the credit union, other than merger into another Underserved Area designated credit union, the secondary capital accounts will, to the extent they are not needed to cover losses at the time of merger or dissolution, be closed and paid out to the account holder.(9) A secondary capital account contract agreement must be executed by an authorized representative of the account holder and the credit union. The agreement must set forth all of the terms and conditions of this section and contain a disclosure and acknowledgement by the account holder that the secondary capital account is not redeemable, will not be insured, may be used to cover operating losses of the credit union and not be replaced or replenished, and is subordinate to all other claims on the assets of the credit union, including claims of member shareholders, creditors and the credit union's insuring organization. All such contract agreements must be retained by the credit union for the term of the agreement.(10) In the event the credit union is classified as "critically under capitalized", "marginally capitalized", "minimally capitalized", "moderately capitalized" or "uncapitalized", or the credit union has failed to undertake any mandatory supervisory action, the commissioner or any entity insuring the accounts of the credit union, may prohibit payment of principal, dividends or interest on the credit union's secondary capital accounts in accordance with powers and procedures granted under state or federal laws, as applicable. Any such unpaid dividends or interest shall continue to accrue under the terms of the account to the extent permitted by law.(11) Credit unions with secondary capital accounts shall record the funds on its balance sheet in an equity account entitled "uninsured secondary capital accounts". The capital value of the accounts shall be kept in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.7 Tex. Admin. Code § 91.206
