(215 ILCS 5/141.4) Sec. 141.4. Disclosure of material transactions. (a) An insurer domiciled in this State shall file a report with the Director disclosing material acquisitions and dispositions of assets or material nonrenewals, cancellations, or revisions of ceded reinsurance agreements unless the acquisitions and dispositions of assets or the material nonrenewals, cancellations, or revisions of ceded reinsurance agreements have been otherwise submitted to the Director for review, approval, or information purposes. The report must be filed no later than 15 days after the end of the calendar month in which a reportable transaction occurs. A copy of the report, including any exhibits or other attachments filed as a part of the report, shall be filed with the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. All reports obtained by or disclosed to the Director under this Section shall be given confidential treatment and shall not be subject to subpoena and shall not be made public by the Director, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, or any other person, except to insurance departments of other states, without the prior written consent of the insurer to which it pertains unless the Director, after giving the insurer who would be affected notice and an opportunity to be heard, determines that the interests of policyholders, shareholders, or the public will be served by publication, in which event the Director may publish all or any part in the manner the Director may deem appropriate. (b) Asset acquisitions or dispositions that are not material do not have to be reported under this Section. For purposes of this Section, a material acquisition (or the aggregate of any series of related acquisitions during any 30 day period) or disposition (or the aggregate of any series of related dispositions during any 30 day period) is one that is nonrecurring and not in the ordinary course of business and involves more than 5% of the reporting insurer's total admitted assets as reported in its most recent statutory financial statement filed with the Director. Asset acquisitions subject to this Section include, but are not limited to, every purchase, lease, exchange, merger, consolidation, succession, or other acquisition other than the construction or development of real property by or for the reporting insurer or the acquisition of materials for that purpose. Asset dispositions subject to this Section include, but are not limited to, every sale, lease, exchange, merger, consolidation, mortgage, hypothecation, assignment (whether for the benefit of creditors or otherwise), abandonment, destruction, or other disposition. All of the following information shall be disclosed in the report of a material acquisition or disposition of assets: (1) Date of the transaction. (2) Manner of acquisition or disposition. (3) Description of the assets involved. (4) Nature and amount of the consideration received or given. (5) Purpose of, or reason for, the transaction. (6) Manner by which the amount of consideration was determined. (7) Gain or loss recognized or realized as a result of the transaction. (8) Name of the person from whom the assets were acquired or to whom they were disposed. Insurers shall report acquisitions and dispositions on a nonconsolidated basis unless the insurer is part of a consolidated group of insurers that utilizes a pooling arrangement or a 100% reinsurance agreement that affects the solvency and integrity of the insurer's reserves and the insurer ceded substantially all of its direct and assumed business to the pool. An insurer is deemed to have ceded substantially all of its direct and assumed business to a pool if the insurer has less than $1,000,000 total direct plus assumed written premiums during a calendar year that are not subject to a pooling arrangement and the net income of the business not subject to the pooling arrangement represents less than 5% of the insurer's capital and surplus. (c) Ceded reinsurance agreement nonrenewals, cancellations, or revisions that are not material do not have to be reported under this Section. For purposes of this Section, a material nonrenewal, cancellation, or revision is one that affects: (1) For property and casualty business, including accident and health business written
