RS 1322 - Liability for contribution
A. A promise by a member to contribute to the limited liability company shall not be enforceable unless set forth in a writing signed by the member.
B. Except as provided in a written operating agreement, a member's obligation to the limited liability company to perform any enforceable promise to contribute cash or property or to perform services shall not be discharged if he is unable to perform because of death, disability, or other reason. If a member does not make the required contribution of property or services, he or his personal representative is obligated, at his or his personal representative's option, to either contribute cash equal to that portion of value of the stated contribution which has not been made or forfeit his entire membership interest, or, in the case of a personal representative, forfeit all rights in such membership interest to which he may otherwise be entitled. However, a creditor of a limited liability company who extends credit after a member signs a writing which reflects the obligation and before any such election to forfeit the membership interests is made may enforce the original obligation to the extent that the limited liability company refuses or is unable to honor the extension of credit.
C. Unless otherwise provided in a written operating agreement, the obligation of a member to make a contribution or return money or other property paid or distributed in violation of this Chapter may be compromised only with the unanimous consent of the members. Notwithstanding such a compromise, a creditor of a limited liability company who extends credit or otherwise acts in reliance on that obligation, after a member signs a writing which reflects the obligation and before the amendment or compromise, may enforce the original obligation to the extent that the limited liability company refuses or is unable to honor the extension of credit.
