A. Shares shall be issued initially for such consideration expressed in dollars, not less than the par value thereof, as shall be fixed in the articles as approved by the commissioner. All fully paid shares shall be nonassessable except as provided in R.S. 6:262.
B. Shares issued in payment of a stock dividend, pursuant to exercise of conversion rights, or in a merger or consolidation as provided in the merger or consolidation agreement, shall be considered as fully paid when so issued.
C. The consideration for shares issued otherwise than as stated in Subsection B of this Section shall be paid in cash before the shares are issued. Cash consideration for shares may not be paid by the purchaser's note, secured or unsecured, or uncertified check; and in case of delivery of such a note or check in payment for shares, the shares shall not be issued until the note or check has been paid in full.
