Each participating insurer’s assessment shall be determined by multiplying the percentage share of the authority’s total gross written premium attributable to that participating insurer’s sales of authority insurance policies as of April 30 of the immediately preceding year, or the most recent year for which premium data not more than one year old are available, by the amount of the total assessment sought by the authority. The total amount of all assessments levied against participating insurance companies by the authority pursuant to this section shall not exceed one billion seven hundred eighty million dollars ($1,780,000,000), regardless of the frequency or severity of earthquake losses at any and all times subsequent to the creation of the authority. Once a participating insurer has paid pursuant to this section amounts equal to its percentage share of the authority’s total gross written premium, multiplied by one billion seven hundred eighty million dollars ($1,780,000,000) reduced as provided in paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) of Section 10089.23 from the maximum assessment, which is to be reduced periodically pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 10089.33, or upon the earlier occurrence of the effective date stated in paragraph (6) of subdivision (b) of Section 10089.33, the authority’s power to assess that insurer under this section shall cease and the authority shall be prohibited from levying additional assessments on that insurer pursuant to this section. The assessment shall be limited to the amount necessary to pay the expected claims and claim expenses of the authority and return the authority’s available capital to three hundred fifty million dollars ($350,000,000), as determined by the board.
