Reporting material changes or additions; penalty for late registration statement.

This statement shall include information previously included in an amendment under subsection (1) of this Section, transactions and agreements submitted under Section 131.20a, and any other material transactions which are required to be reported. (2.5) Any person within an insurance holding company system subject to registration shall be required to provide complete and accurate information to a company where the information is reasonably necessary to enable the company to comply with the provisions of this Article. (3) Any company failing, without just cause, to file any registration statement, any summary of changes to a registration statement, or any Enterprise Risk Filing or any person within an insurance holding company system who fails to provide complete and accurate information to a company as required in this Code shall be required to pay a penalty of up to $1,000 for each day's delay, to be recovered by the Director of Insurance of the State of Illinois, using the notice and hearing procedure in subsection (2) of Section 403A of this Code, and the penalty so recovered shall be paid into the General Revenue Fund of the State of Illinois. The maximum penalty under this section is $50,000. The Director may reduce the penalty if the company demonstrates to the Director that the imposition of the penalty would constitute a financial hardship to the company.
