221.0318 Notes and debentures.
(1) Issuance. A bank may, by the action of its board of directors, issue and sell its notes or debentures of one or more classes in the amount, in the form and with the maturity determined by the board. The notes and debentures may confer such rights and privileges upon the holders of the notes and debentures as determined by the board.
(2) Limitation on issuance. A bank may issue notes and debentures if the amount issued is within limits previously established by the division for issuances by the bank.
(3) Status as capital of bank. Notes and debentures issued by a bank constitute capital of the bank, only if approved by the division.
(4) Retirement of notes and debentures. Before a bank may retire or pay notes or debentures, any existing deficiency of the bank's capital, disregarding the notes and debentures to be retired, must be paid in cash or in assets acceptable to the division, so that the sound capital assets of the bank shall at least equal the capital stock of the bank.
(5) Liability for assessment. A bank's notes or debentures are not subject to any assessment. The holders of these notes or debentures are not liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of the bank or for assessments to restore impairments in the capital of the bank.
