(c) Shares of permanent capital stock may have a par value of not less than one dollar ($1.00) nor more than one hundred dollars ($100) each.
(d) An association authorized to issue capital stock must have, at all times, issued and outstanding, an amount thereof equal in par value to the minimum capital requirements set out in § 23-37-302 or two and one-half percent (2½%) of its gross assets, whichever is greater, but no association shall be required to have more than two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) of par value of the stock outstanding.
(e) Associations whose savings accounts are insured by the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation [abolished] may retire a part of any permanent capital stock issued prior to March 13, 1963, when the associations are authorized to do so by majority vote at any annual meeting of their stockholders, or any special meeting of their stockholders called for such a purpose.
