N.Y. Banking Law § 465
After the shareholders of a credit union have duly voted that the credit union be closed and such business wound up and voluntarily liquidated, and prior to the entry of an order of the supreme court declaring the business of such credit union closed, any shareholder withdrawing any or all of his shares shall be given written notice by the credit union at the time of such withdrawal on the withdrawal notice, that it has been duly voted to close the corporation, wind up its business and voluntarily liquidate, that application may be made to the supreme court for a closing order pursuant to subdivision four of section six hundred five of this chapter, and that by receiving payment for the shares surrendered, he will not be entitled to any part of the surplus which may remain upon final liquidation and which would have been credited upon such shares had the same remained until the time that the closing order was obtained. If the notice is not given as aforesaid, the shareholder shall be entitled to share in the surplus, as if he had not made the withdrawal.
