thereby assume a liability for the repayment of a sum of money upon a written agreement that
the loan or advance with interest shall be repaid only out of surplus of the company in excess of
such minimum surplus as is stipulated in and by the agreement. The agreement shall first be
submitted to and approved by the commissioner. Repayment of principal or payment of interest
may be made only with the approval of the commissioner when he is satisfied that the financial
condition of the company warrants such action, but such approval may not be withheld if the
company has and submits satisfactory evidence of surplus of not less than the amount stipulated
in the repayment of principal or interest clause of the agreement. No loan or advance made under
the provisions of this section or interest accruing thereon shall form a part of the legal liabilities
of the company until authorized for payment by the commissioner, but, until such authorization,
all statements published by the company or filed with the commissioner shall show the amount
thereof then remaining as a special surplus account. Nothing in this section shall be construed to
mean that a company may not otherwise borrow money, but the amount so borrowed with
accrued interest thereon shall be carried by the company as a liability.
