(2) a mutual bank may not invest in
(A) stocks an amount greater than 10 percent of its assets or 100 percent of its surplus and undivided profits, whichever is less;
(B) common stock an amount greater than six percent of its assets or 60 percent of its surplus and undivided profits, whichever is less;
(C) the common and preferred stocks of one issuer an amount greater than one percent of its assets; or
(D) more than two percent of the total issued and outstanding shares of stock of any one issuer.
(b) The limitations of this section do not apply to a mutual bank's investments in a wholly owned subsidiary corporation that owns or leases real or personal property for the purpose of providing a building and facilities to be used primarily for the conduct of the authorized banking activities of the mutual bank.
