        12C.23  PAYMENT OF LOSSES IN A CREDIT UNION.
         1. a.  The pledging of securities by a credit union pursuant
      to this chapter constitutes consent by the credit union to the
      disposition of the securities in accordance with this section.
         b.  The acceptance of public funds by a credit union pursuant
      to this chapter constitutes consent by the credit union to
      assessments by the treasurer of state in accordance with this
      chapter.
         2.  The credit union and the security given for the public funds
      in its hands are liable for payment if the credit union fails to pay
      a check, draft, or warrant drawn by the public officer or to account
      for a check, draft, warrant, order, or certificates of deposit, or
      any public funds entrusted to it if, in failing to pay, the credit
      union acts contrary to the terms of an agreement between the credit
      union and the public body treasurer.  The credit union and the
      security given for the public funds in its hands are also liable for
      payment if the credit union fails to pay an assessment by the
      treasurer of state when the assessment is due.
         3.  If a credit union is closed by its primary regulatory
      officials, the public body with deposits in the credit union may sell
      the collateral to pay for any loss of principal and accrued interest.

         a.  In cooperation with the responsible regulatory officials
      for the credit union, the public body shall validate the amount of
      public funds on deposit at the defaulting credit union and the amount
      of deposit insurance applicable to the deposits.
         b.  The loss to public depositors shall be satisfied, first
      through any applicable deposit insurance and then through the sale of
      securities pledged by the defaulting credit union, and then the
      assets of the defaulting credit union.  The priority of claims are
      those established pursuant to section 533.404, subsection 1,
      paragraph "b".  To the extent permitted by federal law, in the
      distribution of an insolvent federally chartered credit union's
      assets, the order of payment of liabilities if its assets are
      insufficient to pay in full all its liabilities for which claims are
      made shall be in the same order as for the equivalent type of state
      chartered credit union as provided in section 533.404, subsection 1,
      paragraph "b".
         c.  The claim of a public depositor for purposes of this
      section shall be the amount of the depositor's deposits plus interest
      to the date the funds are distributed to the public depositor at the
      rate the credit union agreed to pay on the funds reduced by the
      portion of the funds which is insured by federal deposit insurance.
         d.  If the loss to public funds is not covered by insurance
      and the proceeds of the failed credit union's assets which are
      liquidated within thirty days of the closing of the credit union and
      pledged collateral, the treasurer shall provide coverage of the
      remaining loss from the state sinking fund for public deposits in
      credit unions.  If the funds are inadequate to cover the entire loss,
      then the treasurer shall make an assessment against other credit
      unions who hold public funds.  The assessment shall be determined by
      multiplying the total amount of the remaining loss to public
      depositors by a percentage that represents the average of public
      funds deposits held by all credit unions during the preceding
      twelve-month period ending on the last day of the month immediately
      preceding the month the credit union was closed.  Each credit union
      shall pay its assessment to the treasurer within three business days
      after it receives notice of assessment.  If a credit union fails to
      pay its assessment when due, the treasurer of state shall initiate a
      lawsuit to collect the assessment.  If a credit union is found to
      have failed to pay the assessment as required by this paragraph, the
      court shall order it to pay the assessment, court costs, reasonable
      attorney's fees based upon the amount of time the attorney general's
      office spent preparing and bringing the action, and reasonable
      expenses incurred by the treasurer of state's office.  Idle balances
      in the fund are to be invested by the treasurer with earnings
      credited to the fund.  Fees paid by credit unions for administration
      of this chapter will be credited to the fund and the treasurer may
      deduct actual costs of administration from the fund.
         e.  Any amount realized from the sale of collateral pursuant
      to paragraph "d", in excess of the amount of a credit union's
      assessment, shall continue to be held by the treasurer, in the same
      interest-bearing investments available for public funds, as
      collateral until that credit union provides substitute collateral or
      is otherwise entitled to its release.
