Whenever, in the opinion of the commissioner, any director or officer of a safe deposit company has and continues to violate any law relating to a safe deposit company or has or continues unsafe or unsound practices in conducting the business of the safe deposit company after having been directed by the commissioner to discontinue the violation of law or the unsafe or unsound practices, the commissioner may cause notice to be served upon the director or officer to appear and show cause before him why he should not be removed from office.
A copy of a notice so served shall be sent to each of the other directors of the safe deposit company by registered mail. If, after granting the director or officer a reasonable opportunity to be heard, the commissioner finds that he has and continues to violate any law relating to the safe deposit company, or has and continues unsafe or unsound practices in conducting the business of the safe deposit company, after having been directed by the commissioner to discontinue the violation of law or the unsafe or unsound practices, the commissioner may make an order removing the director or officer from office.
A copy of the order shall be served upon the director or officer and upon the safe deposit company of which he is a director or officer. After the service of the copies of the order, the director or officer shall cease to be a director or officer of the safe deposit company.
