(a) An association may issue and sell, directly or through underwriters, capital certificates that represent nonwithdrawable capital contributions, and constitute part of the reserves and statutory net worth of the association. The certificates shall have no voting rights and shall be subordinate to all savings accounts, debt obligations, and claims of creditors of the association. The certificates shall constitute a claim in liquidation against any reserves, surplus, and other statutory net worth accounts remaining after the payment in full of all savings accounts, debt obligations, and claims of creditors. The capital certificates shall be entitled to the payment of interest prior to the allocation of any income to surplus or other statutory net worth accounts of the association and may be issued with a fixed rate of interest or with a prior claim to distribution of a specified percentage of any net income remaining after required allocations to reserves, or a combination of those features. Losses may be charged against capital certificates only after reserves, surplus, and other statutory net worth accounts have been exhausted. (b) To the extent permitted by its articles of incorporation, an association authorized to issue capital stock may provide for the conversion of capital certificates into common stock.
