EDITORIAL NOTE: Nomenclature changes to
part 750 appear at 84 FR 1609, Feb. 5, 2019.
§ 750.0 Scope.
(a) This part limits and prohibits, in
certain circumstances, the ability of
federally insured credit unions, including Federally and state chartered natural person credit unions and Federally
and state chartered corporate credit
unions, to enter into contracts to pay
and to make golden parachute and indemnification payments to institutionaffiliated parties (IAPs).
(b) The limitations on golden parachute payments apply to troubled federally insured credit unions that seek
to enter into contracts to pay or to
make golden parachute payments to
their IAPs. A ‘‘golden parachute payment’’ is generally considered to be
any payment to an IAP which is contingent on the termination of that person’s employment and is received when
the federally insured credit union making the payment is troubled. The definition of golden parachute payment
does not include payments pursuant to
qualified
retirement
plans,
nonqualified bona fide deferred compensa-
tion plans, nondiscriminatory severance pay plans, other types of common
benefits plans, state statutes and death
benefits. Certain limited exceptions to
the golden parachute payment prohibition are provided for in cases involving
unassisted mergers and the hiring of
new management to help improve a
troubled
federally
insured
credit
union’s financial condition. A procedure is also set forth to permit a federally insured credit union to request
permission to make what would otherwise be a prohibited golden parachute
payment.
(c) The limitations on indemnification payments apply to all federally insured credit unions, including state
chartered credit unions, regardless of
their financial health. Generally, this
part prohibits federally insured credit
unions from indemnifying an IAP for
that portion of the costs sustained
with regard to an administrative proceeding or civil action commenced by
NCUA or a state regulatory authority
that results in a final order or settlement pursuant to which the IAP is assessed a civil money penalty, removed
from office, prohibited from participating in the affairs of a federally insured credit union or required to cease
and desist from an action or take an affirmative action described in section
206 of the Federal Credit Union Act, 12
U.S.C. 1786. There are exceptions to
this general prohibition. First, a federally insured credit union may purchase
commercial insurance to cover these
expenses, except judgments and penalties. Second, the credit union may
advance legal and other professional
expenses to an IAP directly (except for
judgments and penalties) if its board of
directors makes certain specific findings and the IAP provides a written affirmation and agrees in writing to reimburse the credit union if it is ultimately determined that the IAP violated a law or regulation or has engaged in certain unsafe or unsound
practices or breaches of fiduciary duty.
For Federal credit unions, fiduciary
duty is defined in 701.4 of this chapter.
State chartered credit unions should
look to applicable state law.
§ 750.1 Definitions.

all or a portion of the reasonable compensation, wages or fees paid for services rendered that otherwise would
have been paid to the IAP at the time
the services were rendered, including a
plan providing for crediting a reasonable investment return on the elective

(i) Recognizes compensation expense
and accrues a liability for the benefit
payments according to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP);
or
(ii) Segregates or otherwise sets aside
assets in a trust that may only be used

(2) A federally insured credit union
establishes a nonqualified deferred
compensation or supplemental retirement plan, other than an elective deferral plan described in paragraph (b)(1)

provision of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986 (26 U.S.C. 415, 401(a)(17), 402(g));
or
(ii) Primarily for the purpose of providing supplemental retirement benefits or other deferred compensation for
a select group of directors, management or highly compensated employees, excluding severance payments described in paragraph (d)(2)(v) of this
section and permissible golden parachute payments described in § 750.4; and
(3) In the case of any nonqualified deferred compensation or supplemental
retirement plans as described in paragraphs (b)(1) and (2) of this section, the
following requirements apply:
(i) The plan was in effect at least one
year before any of the events described
in paragraph (d)(1)(ii) of this section;
(ii) Any payment made pursuant to

events described in paragraph (d)(1)(ii)
of this section and in accordance with
any amendments to the plan during
that one year period that do not increase the benefits payable under the
plan;
(iii) The IAP has a vested right, as
defined under the applicable plan document, at the time of termination of
employment to payments under the
plan;
(iv) Benefits under the plan are accrued each period only for current or
prior service rendered to the employer,
except that an allowance may be made
for service with a predecessor employer;
(v) Any payment made pursuant to
the plan is not based on any discretionary acceleration of vesting or accrual of benefits that occurs at any
time later than one year before any of
the events described in paragraph
(d)(1)(ii) of this section;
(vi) The federally insured credit
union has previously recognized compensation expense and accrued a liability for the benefit payments according
to GAAP or segregated or otherwise set
aside assets in a trust that may only be
used to pay plan benefits, except that
the assets of the trust may be available
to satisfy claims of the credit union’s
creditors in the case of insolvency; and
(vii) Payments pursuant to the plans
must not exceed the accrued liability
computed in accordance with GAAP.
(c) federally insured credit union
means a Federal credit union, state
chartered credit union, or corporate
credit union the member accounts of
which are insured under the Act.
(d) Golden parachute payment. (1) The

A nondiscriminatory plan, contract or

date on which the funds or assets are
segregated, or at the time of or after
such trust is established or letter of

connection with a settlement that the

regulations or has not engaged in certain unsafe or unsound practices or
breaches of fiduciary duty, unless the
administrative action or civil proceeding has resulted in a final prohibition order against the IAP.

§ 750.4 Permissible golden parachute
payments.
(a) A federally insured credit union
may agree to make or may make a
golden parachute payment if:
(1) NCUA, with written concurrence
of the appropriate state supervisory
authority in the case of a state chartered credit union or corporate credit
union, determines the payment or
agreement is permissible; or
(2) An agreement is made in order to
hire a person to become an IAP at a
time when the federally insured credit
union satisfies or in an effort to prevent it from imminently satisfying any
of the criteria in § 750.1(d)(1)(ii), and
NCUA, with written concurrence of the
appropriate state supervisory authority in the case of a state chartered
credit union or corporate credit union,
consents in writing to the amount and
terms of the golden parachute payment. NCUA’s consent will not improve
the IAP’s position in the event of the
insolvency of the credit union since
NCUA’s consent cannot bind a liquidating agent or affect the provability
of claims in liquidation. In the event
the credit union is placed into conservatorship or liquidation, the conservator or the liquidating agent will not
be obligated to pay the promised golden parachute and the IAP will not be
accorded preferential treatment on the
basis of any prior approval; or
(3) A payment is made pursuant to an
agreement that provides for a reasonable severance payment, not to exceed
twelve months’ salary, to an IAP in the
event of a merger of the federally insured credit union; provided, however,
that a federally insured credit union
must obtain the consent of NCUA before making a payment and this paragraph (a)(3) does not apply to any
merger of a federally insured credit
union resulting from an assisted trans1 The provisions in this part 750 control to

of this chapter.
action described in section 208 of the
Act, 12 U.S.C. 1788, or the federally insured credit union being placed into
conservatorship or liquidation; and
(4) A federally insured credit union or
IAP making a request pursuant to
paragraphs (a)(1) through (3) of this
section must demonstrate it does not
possess and is not aware of any information, evidence, documents or other
materials indicating there is a reasonable basis to believe, at the time the
payment is proposed to be made, that:
(i) The IAP has committed any fraudulent act or omission, breach of trust
or fiduciary duty, or insider abuse with
regard to the federally insured credit
union that has had or is likely to have
a material adverse effect on the federally insured credit union;
(ii) The IAP is substantially responsible for the insolvency of, the appointment of a conservator liquidating
agent for, or the troubled condition, as
defined by § 700.2 of this chapter, of the
federally insured credit union;
(iii) The IAP has materially violated
any applicable Federal or state law or
regulation that has had or is likely to
have a material effect on the federally
insured credit union; or
(iv) The IAP has violated or conspired to violate sections 215, 656, 657,
1005, 1006, 1007, 1014, 1032, or 1344 of title
18 of the United States Code, or sections 1341 or 1343 of that title affecting
a federally insured financial institution, as defined in title 18 of the United
States Code.
(b) In making a determination under
paragraphs (a)(1) through (3) of this
section, NCUA may consider:
(1) Whether, and to what degree, the
IAP was in a position of managerial or
fiduciary responsibility;
(2) The length of time the IAP was affiliated with the federally insured credit union and the degree to which the
proposed payment represents a reasonable payment for services rendered
over the period of employment; and
(3) Any other factors or circumstances indicating the proposed
payment would be contrary to the intent of section 206(t) of the Act or this
part.

§ 750.5 Permissible
indemnification
payments.
(a) A federally insured credit union
may make or agree to make reasonable
indemnification payments to an IAP,
including advanced funds to pay or reimburse reasonable legal fees or other
professional expenses incurred by an
IAP in an administrative proceeding or
civil action initiated by NCUA or a
state regulatory authority if:
(1) The federally insured credit
union’s board of directors, in good
faith, determines in writing after due
investigation and consideration that:
(i) The IAP acted in good faith and in
a manner he or she believed to be consistent with his or her fiduciary duty;
(ii) The advancement or payment of
the expenses will not materially adversely affect the credit union’s safety
and soundness; and
(iii) The IAP has the financial capability or has otherwise made appropriate financial arrangements sufficient to repay the advance if required
in accordance with this rule; and
(2) The IAP provides:
(i) A written affirmation of his or her
reasonable good faith belief that he or
she acted in a manner believed to be
consistent with his or her fiduciary
duty; and
(ii) An agreement in writing to reimburse the federally insured credit
union, to the extent not covered by
payments from insurance or bonds purchased pursuant to § 750.1(j)(2)(i), for
that portion of any advanced indemnification payments which ultimately
become
prohibited
indemnification
payments as defined in § 750.1(j); and
(3) The indemnification payments do
not ultimately constitute prohibited
indemnification payments as defined in
§ 750.1(j).
(b) An IAP seeking indemnification
payments must not participate in any
way in the board of director’s discussion and approval of such payments;
however, the IAP may present his or
her request to the board and respond to
any inquiries from the board concerning his or her involvement in the
circumstances giving rise to the administrative proceeding or civil action.
(c) In the event a majority of the
members of the board of directors are
named as respondents in an adminis-
trative proceeding or civil action and
request indemnification, the remaining
members of the board may authorize
independent legal counsel to review the
indemnification request and provide
the remaining members of the board
with a written opinion of counsel as to
whether the conditions in paragraph
(a)(1) through (3) of this section have
been met. If independent legal counsel
concludes that the conditions have
been met, the remaining members of
the board of directors may rely on the
opinion in authorizing the requested
indemnification.
(d) In the event all of the members of
the board of directors are named as respondents in an administrative proceeding or civil action and request indemnification, the board will authorize
independent legal counsel to review the
indemnification request and provide
the board with a written opinion of
counsel as to whether the conditions in
paragraph (a)(1) through (3) of this section have been met. If independent
legal counsel concludes the conditions
have been met, the board of directors
may rely on the opinion in authorizing
the requested indemnification.

§ 750.7 Applicability in the event of liquidation or conservatorship.
The provisions of this part, or any

agent or conservator for a failed federally insured credit union and will not
in any way obligate the liquidating

or other agreement. Claims for employee welfare benefits or other benefits that are contingent, even if otherwise vested, when a liquidating agent
or conservator is appointed for any federally insured credit union, including
any contingency for termination of employment, are not provable claims or
actual, direct compensatory damage
claims against such liquidating agent
or conservator. Nothing in this part
may be construed to permit the payment of salary or any liability or legal
expense of any IAP contrary to 12
