(a)
(1) Above all exemptions and liabilities, each public grain warehouseman shall have and maintain total net assets available for the payment of any indebtedness arising from the conduct of the public grain warehouse in an amount equal to at least ten cents (10cent(s)) multiplied by the maximum number of bushels of grain for which the public grain warehouse is licensed.
(2)
(A) No person may be licensed as a public grain warehouseman unless he or she has available net assets of at least ten thousand dollars ($10,000).
(B) Any deficiency in net assets required above the minimum of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) may, at the discretion of the Public Grain Warehouse Commissioner, be supplied by a commensurate increase in the amount of the public grain warehouseman's bond.
(C)
(i) In determining total available net assets, credit may be given for insurable assets such as buildings, machinery, equipment, and merchandise inventory only to the extent of the current market value of the assets and only to the extent that the assets are protected by insurance against loss or damage.
(ii) The insurance shall be in the form of lawful policies issued by one (1) or more insurance companies authorized to do business and subject to service of process in suits brought in this state, and which provide that no cancellation shall be effective unless thirty (30) days' advance notice of the cancellation is given to the commissioner.
(b) If a public grain warehouseman is licensed or is applying for license to operate two (2) or more public grain warehouses, the maximum total number of bushels which all the facilities will accommodate when stored in the manner customary to the warehouses, as determined by the commissioner, shall be considered in determining whether the public grain warehouseman meets the available net assets requirement of subsection (a) of this section.
(c) For the purposes of this section only, capital stock as such shall not be considered a liability.
