27-9-3-10. Notice of Liquidation by Liquidator

Sec. 10. (a) Unless the Marion County circuit court otherwise directs, the liquidator shall give notice of the liquidation order as soon as possible by:

(1) first-class mail and either by telegram or telephone to the insurance commissioner of each jurisdiction in which the insurer is doing business;

(2) first-class mail to any guaranty association or foreign guaranty association that is or may become obligated as a result of the liquidation;

(3) first-class mail to all insurance producers of the insurer;

(4) first-class mail to all persons known or reasonably expected to have claims against the insurer, including all policyholders, at their last known address as indicated by the records of the insurer;

(5) first-class mail to the secretary of state's office; and

(6) publication in a newspaper of general circulation in the county in which the insurer has its principal place of business and in all other locations the liquidator considers appropriate.

(b) Notice to potential claimants under subsection (a) must require claimants to file with the liquidator their claims, together with proper proof of those claims under section 34 of this chapter, before a date the liquidator specifies in the notice. The liquidator need not require persons claiming cash surrender values or other investment values in life insurance and annuities to file a claim. All claimants must keep the liquidator informed of any changes of address.

(c) If notice is given in accordance with this section, the distribution of assets of the insurer under this chapter shall be conclusive with respect to all claimants, whether or not they received notice.
