California Insurance Code 11440-11443
11440. Any insurer so reorganized shall have assets representing a paid-in capital represented by shares of stock apart from any assets described in Section 11441. At least two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000) of that capital shall be paid up before the insurer issues any policies on the reserve plan. 11441. All assets belonging before transformation to any such insurer or arising or accruing from policies issued upon the assessment plan, shall be used only for the benefit of the holders of such policies. Such assets shall not be used or considered as any part of the paid in capital provided for by section 11440. 11442. If, at or after the time of the transformation, it appears, either from the last preceding annual report by such insurer to the commissioner, or from an investigation made by the commissioner, that the present value of the contributions to be received from the holders of policies on the assessment plan, together with all assets owned by the insurer that have been accumulated from assessments paid by members on that plan, are not equal to the present value of the benefits, including all matured liabilities, to be derived by members under the assessment plan, the insurer shall set aside and maintain a fund for the purpose set forth in section 11443. Such fund together with the present value of contributions and assets, shall equal the present value of such benefits. 11443. The fund required by Section 11442 shall be used for the payment of matured liabilities arising under the assessment plan when other assets applicable thereto are exhausted. It may be derived from the excess over two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000) of the paid-in capital of the insurer. It need be maintained only during the existence of conditions set forth in Section 11442.
