All fraternal benefit societies and all foreign and alien insurance companies and other entities examined by the Insurance Commissioner shall annually reimburse the state for the costs of such examinations. The total cost of all examinations conducted during the fiscal year, including supervision and other overhead, shall be one hundred and thirty-five per cent of the total salaries paid to the examining personnel of the Insurance Department engaged in such examinations less any salary reimbursements. The commissioner shall apportion such total cost of examinations for the fiscal year among such insurance companies and other entities examined during such fiscal year on the basis of time involved in the several examinations and shall assess such fraternal benefit societies, foreign and alien insurance companies and other foreign and alien entities for their respective apportionments of the total cost. Such assessments shall be in addition to any taxes and fees otherwise payable to the state.
