Sec. 19. The capital of a credit union shall consist of the payments on shares which have been made to it by members. A credit union may attach a lien on the shares of any member with outstanding obligations to the credit union. A credit union may, upon the resignation of a member, cancel the shares of such member, and apply the withdrawal value of such shares towards the liquidation of the member's obligations. Fully paid up shares of a credit union may be transferred to any qualified member upon such terms as the bylaws provide. If a federal credit union is authorized by the federal regulatory authority with jurisdiction or by federal law to use one (1) or more forms of secondary capital, the department may by rule, order, or declaratory ruling allow a credit union to use one (1) or more forms of secondary capital. The rule, order, or declaratory ruling must include disclosure requirements concerning the conditions for return of the secondary capital and the liquidation priority of the secondary capital.
