§ 3901.74.

When a life insurance company doing business in this state decides to discontinue

its business, the superintendent of insurance upon the application of the company

or association shall give notice, at its expense, of such intention at least once

a week for six weeks in a newspaper published and of general circulation in the county

in which the company or its general agency is located.  After such publication, the superintendent shall deliver to the company or association

its securities held by the superintendent, if the superintendent is satisfied on an

exhibition of its books and papers, and on an examination made by the superintendent

or by some competent, disinterested person appointed by the superintendent, and upon

the oath of the president or principal officer and the secretary or actuary of the

company, that all debts and liabilities due or to become due upon any contract or

agreement made with any citizen or resident of the United States are paid and extinguished.  The superintendent may deliver to the company or association or its assigns any

portion of the securities on being satisfied that an equal proportion of the debts

and liabilities due or to become due upon any such contract or agreement have been

satisfied, if the amount of securities retained by the superintendent is not less

than twice the amount of the remaining liabilities.
