The failure of an insurance company transacting insurance business in this state to obtain a certificate of authority does not impair the validity of any act or contract of the company and does not prevent the company from defending any civil action in any court of this state, but a company transacting insurance business in this state without a certificate of authority may not maintain a civil action in any court of this state to enforce any right, claim, or demand arising out of the transaction of insurance business until the company has obtained a certificate of authority.
