Official statutory text
The directors of any credit union may, for the dividend period, declare dividends from its undivided profits as provided by law, but no credit union shall credit or pay any dividends or pay loan interest refunds to its members until it has transferred to its regular reserve such part of its gross income as is required by Section 14700. However, nothing in this division shall be construed to permit the credit union to credit or pay a dividend from its undivided profits account when the credit or payment would result in a deficit in the undivided profits account.
