Holland from holding any position with any bank, Connecticut credit union or federal credit union, as defined in Section 36a-2 of the Connecticut General Statues, or with a holding company that holds a subsidiary that is a bank, as defined in Section 36a-2; or as licensee or registrant under Titles 36a or 36b of the Connecticut General Statutes, while the Consent Order is in effect, without the consent of the Commissioner; and (2) imposed a civil penalty of $5,000 on him.
