6-561. Purpose and conditions of loans; prepayment penalties A. A credit union may make loans, including lines of credit, to members for the purposes and on the conditions as the bylaws provide. The board of directors shall establish written policies with respect to the granting of loans including the terms, conditions and acceptable forms of security. B. No person, except another credit union, may become indebted, directly or indirectly, to the credit union for more than ten per cent of the credit union's capital or two hundred dollars, whichever is greater.

An application for a loan shall state the security and other information required by the credit committee or credit manager. Each loan shall be evidenced by a written document. D.
