If the insurer has failed to cure the deficiency within 30 days after receipt of notice thereof by registered or certified mail from the commissioner, the commissioner shall revoke the insurer’s certificate of authority.
(b) If for any reason the market value of assets and securities of a domestic life insurer, representing deposit of the reserves of certain of its outstanding registered policies and registered annuity contracts under laws heretofore in force, falls below the amount so required and as determined from the insurer’s most recent annual statement or most recent examination of the insurer by the commissioner, the insurer shall promptly deposit other or additional assets or securities eligible for deposit sufficient to cure such deficiency. If the insurer has failed to cure the deficiency, after the commissioner has given the insurer notice thereof by registered or certified mail, within such reasonable time not exceeding 90 days as may be allowed therefor by the commissioner and so specified in his notice, the insurer shall be deemed to be insolvent and the commissioner shall revoke its certificate of authority and institute delinquency proceedings against the insurer under Chapter 31 of this title.
