(ii) Accepted by the creditor having reasonable cause to believe that the preference will occur.

(b) Any director, officer, employee, stockholder, member, subscriber and any other person acting on the insurer's behalf who is involved in any such act or deed and any person receiving thereby any of the insurer's property or the benefit of that property is personally liable therefor and is accountable to the commissioner.

(c) The commissioner as a receiver in any proceeding under this chapter may avoid any transfer of or lien upon an insurer's property which any creditor, stockholder, subscriber or member of the insurer might have avoided and may recover the property so transferred unless the person is a bona fide holder for value prior to the date of the entering of an order to show cause under this chapter. The property or its value may be recovered from anyone who receives it except a bona fide holder for value as specified in this subsection.
