(a) The member expressly assumes personal responsibility for the obligation in a signed writing that specifically identifies the obligation assumed.
(b) The member expressly authorizes or ratifies the specific contract, as evidenced by a writing. This subdivision does not apply if the member authorizes or ratifies a contract solely in the member’s capacity as a director, officer, or agent of the association.
