Dividends shall be declared in accordance with the provisions of this subtitle. No preference between savings account members shall be created with respect to the distribution of assets upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of an association. No association shall have power to contract with respect to the savings liability in a manner inconsistent with the provisions of this subtitle.
