Copy as parenthetical citation

(A) An "Authorized Control Level Event" includes any of the following events:

(1) filing of an RBC Report which indicates that a licensee's Total Adjusted Capital is greater than, or equal to, its Mandatory Control Level RBC, but is less than its Authorized Control Level RBC;

(2) issuance of an Adjusted RBC Report that indicates the event in Section 38-9-350(A)(1), provided that the licensee does not challenge that Adjusted RBC Report pursuant to Section 38-9-370. If the licensee challenges that Adjusted RBC Report, then the Authorized Control Level Event occurs upon notification that an administrative law judge has rejected the challenge; or

(3) the failure of a licensee to respond to a Corrective Order in a manner satisfactory to the director, provided the licensee has not challenged the Corrective Order pursuant to Section 38-9-370. If the licensee has challenged a Corrective Order and an administrative law judge has rejected the challenge or has modified the Corrective Order, then the Authorized Control Level Event occurs upon the failure of the licensee to respond to that Corrective Order in a manner satisfactory to the director.

(B) In the event of an Authorized Control Level Event, the director may take action pursuant to Section 38-9-340 or, if the director considers it to be in the best interests of the policyholders and creditors of the licensee and of the public, he may take action necessary to place the licensee under regulatory control pursuant to Section 38-26-10, et seq., or to Section 38-27-10, et seq. The Authorized Control Level Event is sufficient grounds for the director to take that action, and the director has the rights, powers, and duties detailed within those provisions of law. If the director takes action, then the licensee is entitled to the protections that are afforded under those provisions pertaining to summary proceedings.
