LIMITATIONS ON SUCCESSOR ASBESTOS-RELATED LIABILITIES. A. Except as further limited in subsection B of this section, the cumulative successor asbestos-related liabilities of an innocent successor corporation are limited to the fair market value of the total gross assets of the transferor determined as of the time of the merger or consolidation. The innocent successor corporation does not have any responsibility for successor asbestos-related liabilities in excess of this limitation. B. If the transferor had assumed or incurred successor asbestos-related liabilities in connection with a prior merger or consolidation with a prior transferor, then the fair market value of the total assets of the prior transferor, determined as of the time of such earlier merger or consolidation, shall be substituted for the limitation set forth in subsection A of this section for purposes of determining the limitation of liability of an innocent successor corporation. Added by Laws 2013, 1st Ex.Sess., c. 22, § 5, emerg. eff. Sept. 10, 2013. NOTE: Text formerly resided under repealed Title 76, § 75, which was derived from Laws 2009, c. 228, § 69, which was held unconstitutional by the Oklahoma Supreme Court in the case of Douglas v. Cox Retirement Properties, Inc., 2013 OK 37, 302 P.2d 789 (Okla. 2013).
