CHAPTER 304-C LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANIES
Section 304-C:37 Liability for Contribution.

304-C:37 Liability for Contribution. –
    I. A promise by a member to contribute to the limited liability company is not enforceable unless set forth in a writing signed by the member.
    II. Except as provided in a limited liability company agreement, a member is obligated to a limited liability company to perform any enforceable promise to contribute cash or property or to perform services, even if he is unable to perform because of death, disability or any other reason. If a member does not make the required contribution of property or services, he is obligated at the option of the limited liability company to contribute cash equal to that portion of the agreed value of the contribution that has not been made. Such option shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights, including the right to specific performance, that the limited liability company may have against such member under the limited liability company agreement or applicable law.
    III. Unless otherwise provided in a limited liability company agreement, the obligation of a member to make a contribution or return money or other property paid or distributed in violation of this chapter shall be compromised only by consent of all the members. Notwithstanding the compromise, a creditor of a limited liability company who extends credit, or otherwise acts, in reliance on that obligation after the member signs a writing that reflects the obligation and before the compromise may enforce the original obligation.
    IV. A limited liability company agreement may provide that the interest of any member who fails to make any contribution that he is obligated to make shall be subject to specified penalties for, or specified consequences of, such failure. Such penalty or consequence may take the form of reducing or eliminating the defaulting member's proportionate interest in a limited liability company, subordinating his limited liability company interest to that of nondefaulting members, a forced sale of his limited liability company interest, forfeiture of his limited liability company interest, the lending by other members of the amount necessary to meet his commitment, a fixing of the value of his limited liability company interest by appraisal or by formula and redemption or sale of his limited liability company interest at such value, or other penalty or consequence.
