• Ch. 26.1-10.1: Asset and Agreement Reports

Text

1. Materiality. Acquisitions or dispositions of assets need not be reported under section
26.1-10.1-01 if the acquisitions or dispositions are not material. For purposes of this
chapter, a material acquisition, or the aggregate of any series of related acquisitions
during any thirty-day period, or disposition, or the aggregate of any series of related
dispositions during any thirty-day period, is one that is nonrecurring and not in the
ordinary course of business and involves more than five percent of the reporting
insurer's total admitted assets as reported in its most recent statutory statement filed
with the insurance department of the insurer's state of domicile.
2. Scope.
a. Asset acquisitions subject to this chapter include every purchase, lease,
exchange, merger, consolidation, succession, or other acquisition other than the
construction or development of real property by or for the reporting insurer or the
acquisition of materials for this purpose.
b. Asset dispositions subject to this chapter include every sale, lease, exchange,
merger, consolidation, mortgage, hypothecation, assignment whether for the
benefit of creditors or otherwise, abandonment, destruction, or other disposition.
3. Information to be reported.
a. The following information is required to be disclosed in any report of a material
acquisition or disposition of assets:
(1) Date of the transaction;
(2) Manner of acquisition or disposition;
(3) Description of the assets involved;
(4) Nature and amount of the consideration given or received;
(5) Purpose of, or reason for, the transaction;
(6) Manner by which the amount of consideration was determined;
(7) Gain or loss recognized or realized as a result of the transaction; and

(8) Names of the persons from whom the assets were acquired or to whom they
were disposed.
b. Insurers are required to report material acquisitions and dispositions on a
nonconsolidated basis unless the insurer is part of a consolidated group of
insurers that utilizes a pooling arrangement or one hundred percent reinsurance
agreement that affects the solvency and integrity of the insurer's reserves and the
insurer ceded substantially all of its direct and assumed business to the pool. An
insurer is deemed to have ceded substantially all of its direct and assumed
business to a pool if the insurer has less than one million dollars total direct plus
assumed written premiums during a calendar year that are not subject to a
pooling arrangement and the net income of the business not subject to the
pooling arrangement represents less than five percent of the insurer's capital and
surplus.
