Individuals, partnerships and corporations of this State may make application, enter into agreement for and hold policies or contracts
in or with and be a subscriber of any domestic, foreign or alien reciprocal insurer. Any corporation now or hereafter organized under
the laws of this State shall, in addition to the rights, powers, and franchises specified in its articles of incorporation, have full power
and authority as a subscriber to exchange insurance contracts through such reciprocal insurer. The right to exchange such contracts is
hereby declared to be incidental to the purposes for which such corporations are organized and to be as fully granted as the rights and
powers expressly conferred upon such corporations. Government or governmental agencies, state or political subdivisions thereof, boards,
associations, estates, trustees or fiduciaries are authorized to exchange nonassessable reciprocal interinsurance contracts with each other
and with individuals, partnerships and corporations to the same extent that individuals, partnerships and corporations are herein authorized
to exchange reciprocal interinsurance contracts. Any officer, representative, trustee, receiver or legal representative of any such subscriber
shall be recognized as acting for or on its behalf for the purpose of such contract but shall not be personally liable upon such contract
by reason of acting in such representative capacity.
