A. Should the directors or officers exceed any of the limitations set out in R.S. 6:822(1), all officers and directors present at any meeting or conference authorizing such illegal loans and consenting to such loans shall be liable in solido for the full amount of the loans; and the attorney general or the commissioner, or the corporation itself though 1 its proper representatives, or any member or stockholders owning at least two percent of the outstanding shares or savings accounts or stock of the association and acting for the benefit of the association, may at any time institute suit for the foreclosure of the loans without regard to their stipulated maturity.
B. The officers and directors who are responsible for making of the illegal loan may be joined as party defendants in the suits, and judgment may be obtained against them in solido. However, these judgments, although on due recordation constituting judicial mortgages against immovable property of all such officers and directors, shall not become otherwise executory until the association's rights and remedies against the immovable property security on the loans have been liquidated by execution.
