The proration shall be based on the number of full calendar months remaining in the calendar year after the date of termination.
186.35(10)(c)
(c) If a credit union which is entitled to a refund of its membership fee under

186.35(12)(a)
(a) Except as provided in
par. (c), the numerator of the fraction shall be the total of all annual and special assessments paid to the corporation by the member, reduced by any refund to the member of a prorated portion of an annual assessment under
sub. (10) (b) and by any amounts paid to the member by the corporation as a protection or guaranty of any account in the member credit union, other than an account transferred to the member credit union as a result of a merger or liquidation of another credit union.

186.35(12m)(a)1.
1. Refunds to the surviving credit union and the absorbed credit union of a prorated portion of an annual assessment under
sub. (10) (b).
186.35(12m)(a)2.

186.35(13)

s. 186.34.
186.35(14)
(14) Dissolution. Within 30 days after the dissolution of the Wisconsin Credit Union Savings Insurance Corporation, the office of credit unions shall publish a notice of the dissolution in the Wisconsin administrative register.
