§ 515. Dividends prohibited; certain distributions of cash or property authorized. (a) A corporation shall not pay dividends or distribute any part of its income or profit to its members, directors, or officers. (b) A corporation may pay compensation in a reasonable amount to members, directors, or officers for services rendered, and may make distributions of cash or property to members upon dissolution or final liquidation as permitted by this chapter. (c) A corporation may confer benefits upon members or nonmembers in conformity with its purposes, may redeem its capital certificates or subvention certificates, and may make other distributions of cash or property to its members or former members, directors, or officers prior to dissolution or final liquidation, as authorized by this article, except when the corporation is currently insolvent or would thereby be made insolvent or rendered unable to carry on its corporate purposes, or when the fair value of the corporation's assets remaining after such conferring of benefits, or redemption, or other distribution would be insufficient to meet its liabilities.
