  • 1. Any credit union may make  a  written  application  to  the  superintendent  for  leave  to change its place of
      business to another place within the state of New York. The  application
      shall  state  the  reasons  for  such  proposed  change,  and  shall  be
      accompanied by a copy of a resolution  authorizing  the  making  of  the
      application,  certified  by  a  principal officer of the credit union to
      have been adopted by a vote  of  a  majority  of  its  entire  board  of
      directors  at  a  meeting  of  such  board, duly convened and held. Such
      change may be made upon the written approval of the  superintendent.  If
      the superintendent shall grant his certificate authorizing the change of
      location,  as  provided in article two of this chapter, the credit union
      may, upon or after the day specified  in  the  certificate,  remove  its
      property and effects to the location designated therein.
        2.  Subject  to  such regulations as the superintendent may adopt, any
      credit union, may open and maintain within or without the state, in  any
      locality  in  which  a  substantial  portion  of  its  actual  potential
      membership is employed or residing, one or more stations for the conduct
      of its business provided that before any such station or stations  shall
      be opened or maintained or removed to a new location:
        (a)  Its  board  of  directors  shall  submit  to the superintendent a
      written application setting forth the reasons therefor and the  proposed
      location of such station or stations.
        (b) The superintendent shall have given his written approval thereto.
        3.  Every application submitted under either subdivision one or two of
      this section shall be accompanied by an investigation fee as  prescribed
      pursuant to section eighteen-a of this chapter.
        4.  By votes cast by a majority of the shareholders of record entitled
      to vote at a meeting called for the purpose, a credit union, not  having
      perpetual  existence, may extend its duration, or, if it ceased to exist
      because of the expiration of the duration specified in its  organization
      certificate,   may  revive  its  existence.  Such  resolution  shall  be
      transmitted to the superintendent, who shall issue, under his  hand  and
      the  official  seal  of  the  department,  in  triplicate, a certificate
      setting forth the duration  of  the  credit  union  as  extended,  which
      certificates  shall  be  transmitted  and  filed  in  the same manner as
      authorization certificates.
