RULE §19.51Other Real Estate Owned

    (E) is three years following the acquisition of real estate as a trust company facility for future expansion or relocation of the trust company if the real estate has not been occupied by the trust company, unless the banking commissioner has granted written approval to a further delay in the improvement and occupation of the real estate.

  (3) The banking commissioner may grant one or more additional extensions of time for disposing of OREO acquired with the restricted capital of the trust company if the commissioner finds that the trust company has made a good faith effort to dispose of the OREO or that disposal of the OREO would be detrimental to the safety and soundness of the trust company.

(h) Disposition efforts; documentation. A trust company must make diligent and ongoing efforts to dispose of OREO acquired with the restricted capital of the trust company and must maintain documentation adequate to reflect those efforts. Such documentation must be available for inspection by the commissioner. If secondary capital is adequate to reclassify OREO in a manner that does not impinge on restricted capital, this disposition requirement does not apply.

(i) Disposition of OREO. A trust company may dispose of OREO by:

  (1) selling the OREO in a transaction that qualifies as a sale under regulatory accounting principles;

  (2) selling the OREO pursuant to a land contract or contract for deed;

  (3) retaining the property for its own use as a trust company facility, subject to the approval of the commissioner;

  (4) transferring the OREO for market value to an affiliate, subject to Finance Code, §183.109, and applicable federal law, including 12 United States Code, §§371c, 371c-1, and 1828(j);

  (5) if the OREO is a master lease, obtaining a coterminous sublease or an assignment of a coterminous sublease, provided that if the trust company acquires or obtains assignment of a non-coterminous sublease, the holding period during which the master lease must be divested is suspended for the duration of the sublease and will commence running again upon termination of the sublease; or

  (6) entering into a transaction that does not qualify for disposal under paragraphs (1) - (5) of this subsection; provided that its obligation to dispose of the OREO is not met until the trust company receives or accumulates from the purchaser an amount in cash, principal and interest payments, and private mortgage insurance totaling 10% of the sales price, as measured in accordance with regulatory accounting principles.

(j) Accounting for investments in facilities and OREO. A state trust company shall comply with regulatory accounting principles in accounting for its:

  (1) investment in and depreciation of facilities, furniture, fixtures, and equipment; and

  (2) investment in OREO and disposition of OREO.
