(1) If a stockholder of a corporation redeems, the corporation, within 1 year after the date of sale, may redeem by paying to the redemptioner or the sheriff for his benefit the amount paid to effect the redemption, with interest thereon at the rate established by the judgment in the action that led to the execution sale from the date of redemption until the date of such payment, together with any taxes or assessments that may have been paid by the redemptioner, with like interest thereon.
     (2) When a stockholder redeems, any other stockholder or stockholders may, at any time after such redemption and within 60 days after the expiration of 1 year from the date of sale, contribute to the redemption by paying to the redeeming stockholder or depositing with the sheriff for his benefit a sum which bears the same proportion to the amount necessary to redeem which the number of shares owned by such contributing stockholder or stockholders bears to the number of shares of such corporation outstanding, with interest on such sum from the date of redemption until the date of contribution at the rate established by the judgment in the action that led to the execution sale, together with a like proportion of the taxes or assessments paid by such redeeming stockholder, with like interest thereon; and if the corporation does not redeem the property within the time and in the manner and form as aforesaid, the said redeeming and contributing stockholders shall be entitled to receive a sheriff's deed for such property so redeemed and shall succeed to the said property as tenants in common in such proportions, respectively, as they shall respectively pay or contribute to such redemption as aforesaid.
