For purposes of this section, a domestic insurer includes any other person controlling a domestic insurer unless the other person is directly or through affiliates primarily engaged in a business other than the business of insurance. If a person is directly or through affiliates primarily engaged in a business other than the business of insurance, the person shall, at least 60 days before the proposed effective date of the acquisition, file a notice of intent to acquire with the Commissioner setting forth the information required by NRS 692C.254.
