33-2-213 . Withdrawal of assets.
(1)A trust agreement under this part must provide, in substance, that withdrawals of trusteed assets may not be made by the insurer or permitted by the trustee without the written authorization or approval of the commissioner in advance of the withdrawal, except as follows:
(a)any or all income, earnings, dividends, or interest accumulations of the trusteed assets may be paid over to the United States manager of the insurer upon request of the insurer or the manager;
(b)for substitution, coincidentally with a withdrawal, of other securities or assets of value at least equal in amount to those being withdrawn if the substituted securities or assets are eligible for investment of the funds of domestic insurers under chapter 12, if the withdrawal is requested in writing by the insurer's United States manager pursuant to general or specific written authority previously given or delegated by the insurer's board of directors or other similar governing body and a copy of the authority has been filed with the trustee;
(c)for the purpose of making deposits required by law in any state in which the insurer is or becomes an authorized insurer, for the protection of the insurer's policyholders or policyholders and creditors in such state or in the United States, if a withdrawal does not reduce the insurer's deposit in this state to an amount less than the minimum deposit required under 33-2-111 (1)(c)(i) and (1)(c)(ii). The trustee shall transfer any assets withdrawn and in the amount required to be deposited in the other state direct to the depositary required to receive the deposit in the other state, as certified in writing by the public official having supervision of insurance in the other state.
(d)for the purpose of transferring the trusteed assets to an official liquidator, conservator, or rehabilitator pursuant to the order of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(2)The commissioner shall authorize or approve withdrawal of only the assets that are in excess of the amount of assets required to be held in trust under 33-2-202 or as may otherwise be consistent with the provisions of this part.
(3)If at any time the insurer becomes insolvent or if its assets held in the United States are less in amount than as required under 33-2-111 (1)(c), the commissioner shall in writing order the trustee to suspend the right of the insurer or any other person to withdraw assets as authorized under subsections (1)(a), (1)(b), and (1)(c), and the trustee shall comply with the order and until the further order of the commissioner.
