17-11-106. Membership generally; loans to corporation.| (a) Any financial institution may request membership in the corporation by making application to the board of directors on such form and in such manner as said board of directors may require, and membership shall become effective upon acceptance of such application by the board.  (b) Each member of the corporation shall make loans to the corporation as and when called upon by it to do so on such terms and other conditions as shall be approved from time to time by the board of directors, subject to the following conditions:  (i) All loan limits shall be established at the thousand dollar amount nearest to the amount computed in accordance with the provisions of this section;  (ii) Repealed by Laws 1988, ch. 84, § 2.  (iii) The total amount outstanding on loans to the corporation made by any member at any one (1) time, when added to the amount of the investment in the capital stock of the corporation then held by such member, shall not exceed:  (A) Twenty percent (20%) of the total amount then outstanding on loans to the corporation by all members, including in said total amount outstanding amounts validly called for loan but not yet loaned;  (B) The following limit, to be determined as of the time such member becomes a member on the basis of the audited balance sheet of such member at the close of its fiscal year immediately preceding its application for membership, or in the case of an insurance company, its last annual statement to the state insurance commissioner: two and one-half percent (2 1/2%) of the capital and surplus of commercial banks and trust companies; one-half of one percent (1/2%) of the total outstanding loans made by savings and loan associations, and building and loan associations; two and one-half percent (2 1/2%) of the capital and unassigned surplus of stock insurance companies, except fire insurance companies; two and one-half percent (2 1/2%) of the unassigned surplus of mutual insurance companies, except fire insurance companies; one-tenth of one percent (1/10%) of the assets of fire insurance companies; and such limits as may be approved by the board of directors of the corporation for other financial institutions. The board of directors may, on the request of any financial institution applying for membership, and with the approval of two-thirds (2/3%) of the members of the same class as the financial institution making the request, authorize a different loan limit for such financial institution than is set forth above.  (iv) Each call made by the corporation shall be prorated among the members of the corporation in substantially the same proportion that the adjusted loan limit of each member bears to the aggregate of the adjusted loan limits of all members. The adjusted loan limit of a member shall be the amount of the member's loan limit, reduced by the balance of outstanding loans made by the member to the corporation, the investment in capital stock of the corporation held by the member and the amount of any contribution made by the member to the corporation, at the time of the call. No member shall be subject to a call as a result of owning stock in the corporation. Calls shall be made only on members who have made member loans to the corporation;  (v) All loans to the corporation by members under this section shall be evidenced by bonds, debentures, notes, or other evidence of indebtedness of the corporation, which shall be freely negotiable at all times, and which shall bear interest at a rate of not less than one-quarter of one percent (1/4%).
