(a) Subject to subsections (b) through (d), if
an order for liquidation or rehabilitation of a member insurer domiciled
in Indiana has been entered, the receiver appointed under the order
shall have a right to recover on behalf of the member insurer, from any
affiliate that controlled it, the amount of distributions, other than stock
dividends paid by the member insurer on its capital stock, made at any
time during the five (5) years preceding the filing of the petition for
liquidation or rehabilitation.
(b) A distribution described in subsection (a) is not recoverable if
the member insurer shows that when the distribution was paid the
distribution was lawful and reasonable, and that the member insurer did
not know and could not reasonably have known that the distribution
might adversely affect the ability of the member insurer to fulfill the
member insurer's policy and contract obligations.
(c) A person who was an affiliate that controlled the member insurer
at the time a distribution described in subsection (a) was paid is liable
up to the amount of distributions the person received. A person who
was an affiliate that controlled the member insurer at the time the
distributions were declared shall be liable up to the amount of
distributions that would have been received if the distributions had
been paid immediately. If two (2) or more persons are liable with
respect to the same distributions, they are jointly and severally liable.
(d) The maximum amount recoverable under this section shall be
the amount needed in excess of all other available assets of the
insolvent insurer to pay the policy and contract obligations of the
insolvent insurer.
(e) If a person liable under subsection (c) is insolvent, the affiliates
that controlled the person at the time the distribution was paid shall be
jointly and severally liable for any resulting deficiency in the amount
recovered from the insolvent affiliate.
