§ Subd. 2. Commissioner's duties. In the event of a regulatory action level event, the commissioner shall: (1) require the insurer to prepare and submit a risk-based capital plan, or, if applicable, a revised risk-based capital plan; (2) examine or analyze as the commissioner considers necessary the assets, liabilities, and operations of the insurer including reviewing its risk-based capital plan or revised risk-based capital plan; and (3) subsequent to the examination or analysis, issue a corrective order specifying the corrective actions the commissioner determines are required.

§ Subd. 3. Corrective action. In determining corrective actions, the commissioner may take into account factors considered relevant with respect to the insurer based upon the commissioner's examination or analysis of the assets, liabilities and operations of the insurer, including, but not limited to, the results of any sensitivity tests undertaken pursuant to the risk-based capital instructions. The risk-based capital plan or revised risk-based capital plan must be submitted: (1) within 45 days after the occurrence of the regulatory action level event; (2) if the insurer challenges an adjusted risk-based capital report pursuant to section 60A.66 and the challenge is not frivolous in the judgment of the commissioner, within 45 days after the notification to the insurer that the commissioner has, after a hearing, rejected the insurer's challenge; or (3) if the insurer challenges a revised risk-based capital plan pursuant to section 60A.66 and the challenge is not frivolous in the judgment of the commissioner, within 45 days after the notification to the insurer that the commissioner has, after a hearing, rejected the insurer's challenge.

§ Subd. 4. Examination and review. The commissioner may retain actuaries and investment experts and other consultants as may be necessary in the judgment of the commissioner to review the insurer's risk-based capital plan or revised risk-based capital plan, examine or analyze the assets, liabilities, and operations of the insurer and formulate the corrective order with respect to the insurer. The fees, costs, and expenses relating to consultants shall be borne by the affected insurer or other party as directed by the commissioner.
