(4)
In proceedings to liquidate the assets and affairs of a nonprofit limited liability
company, the court shall have the power to issue injunctions and to appoint a
receiver or receivers while the action is pending. The receivers shall have those
powers and duties as the court from time to time may direct, to take action to
preserve the corporate assets wherever situated, and to carry on the affairs of the
nonprofit limited liability company until a full hearing can be held.
After holding a hearing, upon notice as the court may direct to be given to all parties
to the proceedings and to any other parties in interest designated by the court, the
court may appoint a liquidating receiver or receivers with authority to collect the
assets of the nonprofit limited liability company. The liquidating receiver or
receivers shall have authority, subject to the order of the court, to sell, convey, and
dispose of all or any part of the assets of the nonprofit limited liability company
wherever situated, either at public or private sale. The order appointing the
liquidating receiver or receivers shall state their powers and duties. The powers and
duties may be increased or diminished at any time during the proceedings.
The assets of the nonprofit limited liability company or the proceeds resulting from
a sale, conveyance, or other disposition thereof shall be applied and distributed as
follows:
(a) All costs and expenses of the court proceedings and all liabilities and
obligations of the nonprofit limited liability company shall be paid, satisfied,
and discharged, or adequate provision for them shall be made;
(b) Assets held by the nonprofit limited liability company upon condition
requiring return, transfer, or conveyance, which condition occurs by reason of
the dissolution or liquidation, shall be returned, transferred, or conveyed in
accordance with the condition's requirements;
(c) Assets received and held by the nonprofit limited liability company subject to
limitations permitting their use only for a nonprofit purpose, but not held upon
a condition requiring return, transfer, or conveyance by reason of the
dissolution or liquidation, shall be transferred or conveyed to one (1) or more
domestic or foreign nonprofit limited liability companies, societies, or
organizations engaged in activities substantially similar to those of the
dissolving or liquidating nonprofit limited liability company, as the court may
direct; and
(d) Any remaining assets may be distributed to those persons, societies,
organizations, or domestic or foreign limited liability companies, whether for
profit or nonprofit, specified in the plan of distribution adopted or, if no plan
of distribution has been adopted, as the court may direct.
The court shall have power to allow, from time to time, as expenses of the
liquidation, compensation to the receiver or receivers and to attorneys in the
proceeding, and to direct the payment thereof out of the assets of the nonprofit
limited liability company or the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the assets.
(5)
A receiver of a nonprofit limited liability company appointed under the provisions
of this section shall have authority to sue and defend in all courts in the receiver’s
own name as receiver of the nonprofit limited liability company. The court
appointing the receiver shall have exclusive jurisdiction of the nonprofit limited
liability company and its property, wherever situated.
