(1) That the subject person or former subject person has been charged in an indictment issued by a grand jury or in an information, complaint, or similar pleading issued by a United States attorney, district attorney, or other governmental official or agency authorized to prosecute crimes, with commission of or participation in any of the following:
(A) A crime that involves dishonesty or breach of trust and that is punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year.
(B) A criminal violation of any provision of this division.

(2) That continued or resumed service or participation by the subject person or former subject person may pose a threat to the rights or interests of the customers or members of the subject institution or may threaten to impair public confidence in the subject institution.
(b) An order issued pursuant to subdivision (a) shall remain in effect until the indictment or the information, complaint, or similar pleading is finally disposed of or, if the order is earlier terminated by the commissioner, until the order is so terminated.
(c) If the commissioner finds that the factors set forth in paragraphs (1) and (2) are true with respect to a subject person or former subject person of a subject institution or holding company, the commissioner may, without any prior notice or opportunity to be heard, issue an order suspending or removing the subject person or former subject person from his or her office, if any, with the subject institution or holding company and prohibiting him or her from further participating in any manner in the affairs of the subject institution or holding company without the approval of the commissioner:
(1) That the subject person or former subject person has been finally convicted of any crime of the type described in paragraph (1) of subdivision (a). For purposes of this paragraph, an agreement to enter a pretrial diversion or similar program is deemed to be a conviction.
(2) That continued or resumed service or participation by the subject person or former subject person may pose a threat to the interests of the customers of the subject institution or may threaten to impair public confidence in the subject institution.
(d) The fact that any subject person of a subject institution charged with a crime of the type described in paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) is not finally convicted of the crime does not preclude the commissioner from issuing an order regarding the subject person pursuant to any other provision of this article.
