(2)           Whenever the Reserves fall below one and one half per centum of total assets it shall be replenished by regular transfers of 2 per centum of specified gross earnings or by contributions in such amounts as may be needed to maintain the Reserves at one and one half per centum of total assets, whichever is less.

(3)           The Administrator may increase or decrease the reserve requirement set forth herein when such action is deemed necessary or desirable.

(4)           Charges may be made against the Reserves to offset losses on loans, and investments.
