17-5414. Repurchase procedure to be followed by association. The association shall have the right to repurchase its shares at any time upon application therefor and to pay to the holders thereof the repurchase value thereof. Holders of shares shall have the right to file with the association their written applications to repurchase their shares, in part or in full, at any time. Upon the filing of such written applications to repurchase, the association shall number and file the same in the order received and shall either pay the holder the repurchase value of the shares, in part or in full as requested, or, after thirty (30) days from the receipt of such application to repurchase, apply at least one-third of the receipts of the association from holders of shares and borrowers, to the repurchase of such shares in numerical order: Provided, That if any holder of a share applies for the repurchase of more than one thousand dollars ($1,000) of his shares, he shall be paid one thousand dollars ($1,000) in order when reached, and his application shall be charged with such amount as paid and shall be renumbered and placed at the end of the list of applications to repurchase, and thereafter, upon again being reached shall be paid a like amount, but not exceeding the value of his shares, and until paid in full shall continue to be so paid, renumbered, and replaced at the end of the list. When an application to repurchase is reached for payment as above provided, a written notice shall be sent to the applicant by registered mail at his last address recorded on the books of the association, and, unless the applicant shall apply in person or in writing for such repurchase payment within thirty (30) days from the date of mailing such notice, no payment on shares of such application shall be made and such application shall be canceled. The board of directors shall have the absolute right to repurchase not exceeding two hundred dollars ($200) of any one share of any one holder in any one month in any order regardless of whether or not such holder has filed an application for repurchase. Holders of shares filing written application for repurchase shall remain holders of shares and be entitled to participate in dividends until paid and shall not become creditors.
