13-4-701. Payment of stockholders.

(a) If the state banking commissioner has paid the full amount of the claim to each depositor and creditor of the bank whose claims have been allowed, has made provision for unpaid deposits and has paid all the expenses of the liquidation, he shall call a meeting of the stockholders of the bank by giving notice for thirty (30) days in a newspaper published in the county in which the bank was located.

(b) At the meeting the stockholders shall determine whether the state banking commissioner shall continue to administer its assets and wind up the affairs of the bank or whether an agent shall be elected for that purpose. The stockholders shall vote by ballot, each share having one (1) vote. An affirmative vote by the majority of the stock is necessary for a determination.

(c) If it is determined to continue the liquidation under the state banking commissioner, he shall complete the liquidation of the affairs of the bank. After paying the expenses of the liquidation, he shall distribute the proceeds among the stockholders in proportion to the holdings of stock as directed by the district court.

(d) If it is determined to appoint an agent to liquidate, the stockholders shall select the agent by ballot. A majority of the stock present and voting is necessary for a choice. The agent shall file with the state banking commissioner a bond approved by the state banking commissioner to the state of Wyoming for the faithful performance of all the duties of his trust. The state banking commissioner shall then transfer assets of the bank to the agent. The state banking commissioner is discharged from all further liability to the bank and its creditors.

(e) The agent shall perform his duties as would the state banking commissioner except that the expenses of liquidation are subject to the control of the district court.

(f) In case of failure to act by any agent the stockholders may elect a successor.
