(3) Liquidation shall be conducted by the board under a written plan of liquidation filed with and approved by the director. If the director finds the plan to be fair and equitable to all persons having a pecuniary interest in the trust fund, he shall approve it. Any balance remaining after payment or adequate provision for payment of all claims and charges against the trust fund has been made shall be disposed of in the manner provided for in the plan of liquidation. Unless under the plan of liquidation the liability for all unpaid claims and obligations of the trust fund has been assumed by another financially responsible person or persons, the existence of surplus funds for such disposition shall not be determined prior to the expiration of two (2) years after termination of the certificate of registration issued to the trust fund as provided in section 41-4930 (2), Idaho Code.

(6) If after all indebtedness and other obligations of the trust fund are discharged to the satisfaction of the director and the trust fund is dissolved, its remaining assets, if any, shall inure to the benefit of the state.
