Indiana Code Title 15. Agriculture and Animals § 15-12-1-28

Sec. 28. (a) A certificate of membership or a share or shares of voting stock may not be issued by an association until the membership fee or consideration for the share of stock has been paid in full.  A promissory note may be accepted in full or partial payment for a share of stock or membership fee.  However, the stock or membership certificate shall be held as security for the payment of the note.  The acceptance of a note in full or partial payment of a share of stock or membership fee does not affect the member's right to vote if the member is not in default under the terms of the note.

(b) A member is not liable for the debts of the association to an amount exceeding the sum remaining unpaid on the member's membership fee or on the member's subscription or agreement to purchase a share or shares of stock, including any unpaid balance on any note given in payment.

(c) An association may provide in the association's articles of incorporation or bylaws that a member may not own more than a fixed amount or percentage of the association's membership capital or a fixed percentage or number of shares of the association's outstanding voting stock.
