    (Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2027)
    Sec. 123C-8. Merger, consolidation, plans of exchange and reorganization.
    A. The provisions of Article X shall apply to captive insurance companies; provided, however, that:
        (1) if the surviving or new company is to be a
    
domestic captive insurance company,
            (a) the Director shall, in determining whether
        
such company meets the requirements set forth in paragraph (b) of subsection (2) of Section 162, refer only to the provisions of this Article VIIC and the other provisions of Article X;
            (b) the Director shall, in determining whether
        
such company meets the requirements of Sections 123C-3 and 123C-4, take into account the capital and surplus of the company to be merged into the domestic captive insurance company or the companies to be consolidated into the domestic captive insurance company (but any approval by the Director of such merger or consolidation shall be contingent upon the receipt of such capital and surplus by the domestic captive insurance company and satisfactory evidence thereof being presented to the Director);
            (c) notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph
        
(c) of subsection (1) of Section 166, such surviving or new company shall have all of the rights, privileges, immunities and powers and shall be subject to all of the duties and liabilities granted or imposed by this Article VIIC (and not by the entire Code); and
        (2) in the event that such merger or consolidation is
    
to be effected in conjunction with the formation and licensing of a new domestic captive insurance company in this State, the Director shall follow procedures for the contemporaneous and expeditious review of the materials presented to the Director for his approval of such formation, licensing and merger or consolidation.
    B. (1) Any domestic, foreign or alien stock company, mutual company, or reciprocal company, authorized or which may be authorized to do business in this State, may reorganize as a domestic captive insurance company under the laws of this State, by complying with the provisions of Article XII. Domestic companies are hereby authorized to reorganize as domestic captive insurance companies.
        (2) In the event that such reorganization is to be
    
effected in conjunction with the formation and licensing of a new captive insurance company in this State, the Director shall follow procedures for the contemporaneous and expeditious review of the materials presented to the Director for his approval of such formation, licensing and reorganization.
