§ 36-1625. Time limits for disposal of other ineligible property and securities; penalty.

A.  Any personal property or securities lawfully acquired by an insurer, which it could not otherwise have invested in or loaned its funds upon at the time of such acquisition, shall be disposed of within three (3) years from date of acquisition, unless within such period the security has attained to the standard of eligibility; the failure to make such disposition shall result in the disallowance of such property as an asset in any statement by an insurer to the Insurance Commissioner, in any published financial statement or in any examiner's report to said Commissioner; provided, however, that any security or property acquired under any agreement of bulk reinsurance, merger, or consolidation may be retained for a longer period than such three (3) years if so provided in such plan for the reinsurance, merger, or consolidation as was approved by the Insurance Commissioner pursuant to this Code.  The Insurance Commissioner, upon application and proof that forced sale of any such property or security would be against the best interests of the insurer, may extend the disposal period for an additional reasonable time.

B.  Any real property acquired in satisfaction of debt by an insurer, which the insurer could not otherwise have invested in or loaned funds upon at the time of such acquisition, shall be disposed of within three (3) years from the date of such acquisition.  The Insurance Commissioner, upon application and proof that forced sale of any such property would be against the best interests of the insurer, may extend the disposal period for an additional reasonable time.

C.  Any such real or personal property or security held by an insurer after expiration of the period for disposal thereof or any extension of such period granted by the Insurance Commissioner shall not be allowed as an asset of the insurer.
