insurers.
A.  Whenever under this article an ancillary receiver is to be
appointed in delinquency proceedings for an insurer not domiciled in
this state, the court shall appoint the Insurance Commissioner as
ancillary receiver.  The Insurance Commissioner shall file a
petition requesting the appointment on the grounds set forth in
section 1809 of this article (1) if he finds that there are
sufficient assets of the insurer located in this state to justify

the appointment of an ancillary receiver, or (2) if ten (10) or more
persons resident in this state having claims against such insurer
file a petition with the Insurance Commissioner requesting the
appointment of such ancillary receiver.
B.  The domiciliary receiver for the purpose of liquidating an
insurer domiciled in a reciprocal state shall be vested by operation
of law with the title to all of the property, contracts, and rights
of action and all of the books and records of the insurer located in
this state, and he shall have the immediate right to recover
balances due from local agents and to obtain possession of any books
and records of the insurer found in this state.  He shall also be
entitled to recover the other assets of the insurer located in this
state, except that upon the appointment of an ancillary receiver in
this state, the ancillary receiver shall during the ancillary
receivership proceedings have the sole right to recover such other
assets.  The ancillary receiver shall, as soon as practicable,
liquidate from their respective securities those special deposit
claims and secured claims which are proved and allowed in the
ancillary proceedings in this state, and shall pay the necessary
expense of the proceedings.  All remaining assets he shall promptly
transfer to the domiciliary receiver.  Subject to the foregoing
provisions, the ancillary receiver and his deputies shall have the
same powers and be subject to the same duties with respect to the
administration of such assets as a receiver of an insurer domiciled
in this state.
C.  The domiciliary receiver of an insurer domiciled in a
reciprocal state may sue in this state to recover any assets of such
insurer to which he may be entitled under the laws of this state.
