NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Subsection 7-1-301(4) authorizes the commissioner to safeguard the interest of shareholders, members, depositors, and other customers of institutions. Section 7-3-13 restricts changes in the articles of incorporation if the change would result in the impairment of the rights, remedies, or securities of depositors and other creditors.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

No supporting or opposing written comments have been received by the agency concerning this rule.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

The rule defines, clarifies, and limits the extent to which a state-chartered bank may provide in its articles of incorporation or bylaws for the indemnification of directors, officers, and employees. The rule also deters acts that could threaten the safety and soundness of banks by specifically prohibiting the indemnification of directors, officers, and employees and should be continued.
