(c)

1. (1) Before a foreign (other nation) credit union is authorized to transact business in this state, the foreign (other nation) credit union shall deposit, and each foreign (other nation) credit union that is licensed to transact business in this state shall maintain on deposit, with an approved depository eligible assets having a value in an amount not less than the applicable minimum.
2. (2) Whenever a foreign (other nation) credit union that is licensed to transact business in this state ceases to be so licensed, the foreign (other nation) credit union shall thereafter maintain on deposit with an approved depository eligible assets having a value in an amount not less than the applicable minimum for the period of time as the commissioner may determine to be necessary for the protection of creditors of the foreign (other nation) credit union’s business in this state or for the protection of the public interest.

2. (2) No approved depository that holds eligible assets on deposit from a foreign (other nation) credit union pursuant to this section shall release any eligible asset except with the prior approval of the commissioner or as otherwise provided in subdivision (h).

(f)

1. (1) Whenever a foreign (other nation) credit union deposits eligible assets with, or withdraws eligible assets from, an approved depository pursuant to this section, the foreign (other nation) credit union shall do so in accordance with the procedures and requirements as the commissioner may by regulation or order prescribe.
2. (2) Whenever an approved depository receives, holds, or releases eligible assets pursuant to this section, the approved depository shall do so in accordance with the procedures and requirements as the commissioner may by regulation or order prescribe and shall file with the commissioner reports as and when the commissioner may by regulation or order require.

(g) Whenever a foreign (other nation) credit union maintains eligible assets on deposit with an approved depository pursuant to this section:

1. (1) The eligible assets shall be deemed to be pledged to the commissioner for the benefit of the creditors of the foreign (other nation) credit union’s business in the state; and, notwithstanding any provision of the Uniform Commercial Code to the contrary, the commissioner, for the benefit of these creditors, shall be deemed to have a security interest in the eligible assets.

(h)

1. (1) In case the commissioner takes possession of the property and business of a foreign (other nation) credit union that maintains eligible assets on deposit with an approved depository pursuant to this section, the approved depository shall, upon order of the commissioner, release the eligible assets to the commissioner, as liquidator of the property and business of the foreign (other nation) credit union.
2. (2) In case a foreign (other nation) credit union that maintains eligible assets on deposit with an approved depository pursuant to this section fails to pay any judgment creditor of its business in this state and the commissioner has not taken possession of the property and business of the foreign (other nation) credit union, the approved depository shall release the eligible assets to the commissioner, and the commissioner shall dispose of the eligible assets, as a court of competent jurisdiction of this state or of the United States may order for the benefit of the judgment creditor. For purposes of this paragraph, “judgment creditor of its business in this state” means a person to whom the foreign (other nation) credit union is required to pay money under a judgment that (A) arose out of the foreign (other nation) credit union’s business in this state, (B) has been entered by a court of this state or of the United States, (C) has become final, in that all possibility of direct attack on the judgment by way of appeal, motion for new trial, motion to vacate, or petition for extraordinary writ has been exhausted, and (D) has remained unpaid for a period of not less than 60 days after becoming final.
