SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 18, 2010, the NCUA Board issued 
proposed amendments to its rule governing corporate credit unions 
(corporates) contained in part 704. The amendments include internal 
control and reporting requirements for corporates similar to those 
required for banks under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the 
Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The amendments require each corporate to establish 
an enterprise-wide risk management committee staffed with at least one 
risk management expert. The amendments provide for the equitable 
sharing of Temporary Corporate Credit Union Stabilization Fund expenses 
among all members of corporates, including both credit union and 
noncredit union members. The amendments increase the transparency of 
decision-making by requiring corporates conduct all board of director 
votes as recorded votes and include the votes of individual directors 
in the meeting minutes. The amendments permit corporates to charge 
their members reasonable one-time or periodic membership fees as 
necessary to facilitate retained earnings growth. For senior corporate 
executives who are dual employees of corporate credit union service 
organizations (CUSOs), the amendments require disclosure of certain 
compensation received from the corporate CUSO. In addition, this 
proposal would amend parts 701 and 741 to limit natural person credit 
unions to membership in one corporate credit union at any particular 
time and provide that a natural person credit union may not make any 
investment in a corporate credit union of which the natural person 
credit union is not also a member. 75 FR 73000 (November 29, 2010).
    NCUA requested comments on its proposal and set a 30-day comment 
period, originally scheduled to end on December 29, 2010. NCUA has 
received a request to extend the comment period. The NCUA Board 
believes a 30-day extension will facilitate the submission of comments 
without causing undue delay to the rulemaking process. Accordingly, the 
comment period is extended and comments must now be received by January 
28, 2011.

    By the National Credit Union Administration Board on November 
29, 2010.
Mary F. Rupp,
Secretary of the Board.
