(1) From and after July 1, 1993, a member insurer may offset against its (premium, franchise or income) tax liability (or liabilities) to this state an assessment described in Section 83-23-217(8) to the extent of twenty percent (20%) of the amount of such assessment, if any, for each year over the next five (5) succeeding years. However, if the offset is less than twenty percent (20%), any unused balance may be carried over to any succeeding year until such time as the offset provided herein is fully used. In the event a member insurer should cease doing business, all uncredited assessments may be credited against its (premium, franchise or income) tax liability (or liabilities) for the year it ceases doing business.

(2) Any sums which are acquired by refund, pursuant to Section 83-23-217(6), from the association by member insurers, and which have theretofore been offset against (premium, franchise or income) taxes as provided in subsection (1) of this section, shall be paid by such insurers to this state in such manner as the tax authorities may require. The association shall notify the commissioner that such refunds have been made.
