Ohio Code § 3919.07

§ 3919.07.

An association organized under section 3919.01 of the Revised Code may provide in its contracts for stipulated premiums, death benefits, cash surrender

values, and loan values, to an amount not exceeding the reserve, or it may provide

for the equivalent paid-up or extended term insurance based upon a rate of mortality

not lower than, and a rate of interest not higher than, that used in determining the

reserve provided in sections 3919.02 to 3919.10, inclusive, of the Revised Code .  Whenever the assets held separately for contracts issued on and after January 1,

1926, and for such other contracts designated as provided in such sections, exceed

the reserves thereon by not less than five per cent of such reserves, any excess assets

derived from mortality savings and investment gains and other sources may be apportioned,

distributed, and used as provided by the association.
