(1) the interests of the depositors and creditors of the association are jeopardized because of:
(A) the association's insolvency or imminent insolvency; or
(B) a substantial dissipation of the association's assets or earnings because of a violation of a law or an unsafe or unsound practice; and
(2) it is in the best interest of the depositors and creditors to close the association and liquidate the association's assets.
