Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1132, a bank or a majority-owned subsidiary of a bank may, with the prior approval of the commissioner, make a distribution to the shareholders of such bank in an amount not exceeding the greatest of:
(a)
The retained earnings of the bank;
(b)
The net income of the bank for its last fiscal year; or
(c)
The net income of the bank for its current fiscal year.
The legislature occasionally skips outline levels.
For example:
(3) A person may apply [...]
(4)(a) A person petitioning for relief [...]
In this example, (3), (4),
and (4)(a) are all outline levels, but
(4) was
omitted by its authors. It's only implied. This presents an
interesting challenge when laying out the text. We've
decided to display a blank section with this note, in order
to aide readability.
