(2) Unless otherwise specified in its Articles of Incorporation, when an association cannot pay withdrawal requests within fourteen days of the date of receipt of written requests in the order received, it shall proceed in the following manner:

1. (a) Requests must be paid in numerical order as filed with the association, and as each number is reached the account holder must be paid the lesser of one thousand dollars or the amount of the withdrawal request. If the amount of the request is not paid in full, the request must be renumbered, placed at the end of the list of requests, and acted upon in the same way when its new number is reached, until the request is paid in full. However, when a request is reached for payment, the association shall so notify the account holder by registered mail at his last address as recorded on the association's books and, unless the holder within fourteen days from the mailing of the notice applies in person or in writing for payment, the request must be cancelled and not paid. Regardless of any other provision in this section, the board of directors may pay on an equitable basis an amount not exceeding two hundred dollars to any account holder in any calendar month;
2. (b) The association shall allot to the payment of the withdrawal requests the remainder of the association's receipts from all sources after deducting therefrom amounts for expenses, required payments on indebtedness, earnings distributable in cash to holders of savings accounts, and a fund for general corporate purposes of not more than twenty percent of the association's receipts from its account holders and its borrowers.
