(a) No captive insurance company may pay a dividend out of, or other distribution with respect to, capital or surplus without the prior approval of the Insurance Commissioner.

(b) No special purpose financial captive insurance company may declare or pay a dividend or distribution if such dividend or distribution would jeopardize the ability of such company or any other person to fulfill such company's or other person's respective obligations under such company's securitization agreements, reinsurance contract or any related transaction.
