(a) The par value of shares of a Connecticut credit union shall be five dollars or any multiple thereof, provided such par value shall not exceed one hundred dollars. (b) A Connecticut credit union may receive payments on shares and permit withdrawals of payments on shares with the exception of membership shares in accordance with such credit union's bylaws and the Deposit Account Contract Act, sections 36a-315 to 36a-323 , inclusive, except that the governing board may require members to give sixty days' notice of intention to withdraw the whole or any part of their shares or payments on shares, including membership shares. (c) A Connecticut credit union may, with the written approval of the commissioner and subject to applicable restrictions of state and federal law, receive from members payments on shares that qualify as part of a retirement plan for self-employed individuals or an individual retirement account in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or any subsequent corresponding internal revenue code of the United States, as from time to time amended. Such payments on shares shall be established in a separate account from the shares of the member, and shall not be subject to pledge to secure extensions of credit by the Connecticut credit union to the member or be available for set-off by the Connecticut credit union if the member defaults on an extension of credit. Such shares shall be treated as under separate ownership for purposes of applying any limit imposed by the governing board pursuant to its authority under subdivision (5) of subsection (a) of section 36a-448a , on the maximum amount of shares owned by a member. Otherwise, such shares are subject to all of the provisions of this chapter relating to shares. (d) A Connecticut credit union may receive payments on shares which the member agrees in writing not to withdraw within the time period specified in the agreement. (e) A Connecticut credit union may receive payments from a nonmember who is (1) an individual, into a share account held jointly with a member of the Connecticut credit union, which share account is subject to the provisions of section 36a-290 ; (2) the United States, this state or any municipality or other political subdivision thereof; (3) a federally-recognized Native American tribal government located in this state; or (4) another Connecticut credit union, federal credit union or out-of-state credit union. (f) A Connecticut credit union that has received a low-income designation from the National Credit Union Administration, or its successor agency, under 12 CFR 701.34, as from time to time amended, may offer secondary capital accounts to any person other than an individual, subject to the requirements and conditions imposed on federally-chartered, low-income designated credit unions under 12 CFR 701.34, as from time to time amended. (g) A Connecticut credit union shall maintain in full force and effect share insurance as required under the Federal Credit Union Act. Any Connecticut credit union that fails to maintain in full force and effect such share insurance shall terminate its corporate existence under such terms and conditions as the commissioner deems appropriate. (h) A Connecticut credit union may obtain from an insurance company licensed and qualified to do business in this state share insurance coverage that exceeds the maximum allowable under the Federal Credit Union Act. (i) Without being required to take any action to attach or perfect a lien, a Connecticut credit union shall have and may impress and enforce a lien on the shares of each member to secure the payment of all absolute and contingent liabilities of such member to the Connecticut credit union.
