Title 40 - INSURANCE
Chapter 35 - Medical Professional Liability Reciprocal Exchange-to-Stock Conversion
Section 3504 - Optional provisions of plan of conversion
(a) Subscription rights.--The plan may provide that the directors and officers of the attorney and the reciprocal insurer shall receive, without payment, nontransferable subscription rights to purchase capital stock of the stock company or the stock of another corporation that is participating in the conversion plan, as provided in section 3503(a)(3)(ii) (relating to contents of plan of conversion). The subscription rights shall be allocated among the directors and officers by a fair and equitable formula and shall be subordinate to the subscription rights of eligible subscribers. This chapter may not require the subordination of subscription rights received by directors and officers in their capacity as eligible subscribers.
(b) Maximum share purchase by directors and officers.--The aggregate total number of shares that may be purchased by directors and officers of the attorney and the reciprocal insurer in their capacity under subsection (a) and in their capacity as eligible subscribers under section 3503(a)(3) may not exceed 35% of the total number of shares to be issued if total assets of the reciprocal insurer are less than $50,000,000 or 25% of the total number of shares to be issued if total assets of the reciprocal insurer are more than $500,000,000. For reciprocal companies with total assets of or between $50,000,000 and $500,000,000, the percentage of the total number of shares that may be purchased shall be interpolated.
(c) Liquidation account.--The plan may provide for the creation of a liquidation account for the benefit of subscribers in the event of voluntary liquidation subsequent to conversion in an amount equal to the surplus of the reciprocal insurer, exclusive of the principal amount of a surplus note, on the last day of the quarter immediately preceding the date of adoption of the plan.
