In no case shall any banking office remain closed for more than forty-eight consecutive hours, excluding legal holidays, without obtaining the approval of the superintendent or, in the case of a national bank, the comptroller of the currency.

(C) Any act required or authorized to be performed at a banking office that has not been opened or that has been closed for any time pursuant to this section, may be performed on the next succeeding business day the banking office is reopened for business. Any other provision or rule of law notwithstanding, no liability or loss of rights of any kind on the part of any person, firm, or corporation, or of the bank, shall accrue or result because of any nonopening or closing authorized by this section.
(D) The right of a bank not to open or to close under this section and the protections afforded with respect to that right shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any rights or protections granted under section 1304.07 of the Revised Code.
