Sec. 31.3. (a) As used in this section, "official" means an individual who is or who was a director, committee member, officer, or employee of a credit union.

In discharging the official's duties, an official may rely upon:
(1) the opinion of legal counsel for the credit union;
(2) the report of an independent appraiser selected with reasonable care by:
(A) the board; or
(B) an officer of the credit union; or
(3) financial statements of the credit union:
(A) represented to the official to be correct by the:
(i) chief executive officer; or
(ii) officer of the credit union having charge of the credit union's records; or
(B) stated in a written report by an independent public or certified public accountant or firm of accountants fairly to reflect the financial condition of the credit union.
(c) As used in this section, "credit union" includes all other credit unions that become related to a credit union by a consolidation or merger and the resulting or continuing credit union.
(d) A credit union may indemnify a director, a committee member, an officer, an employee, or an agent to the extent and in the same manner that a corporation may indemnify a director, committee member, officer, employee, or agent under IC 28-13-13-2 through IC 28-13-13-13.
