OR Rev Stat § 732.592 (2021)
2021 Oregon Revised Statutes|Volume : 18 - Financial Institutions, Insurance|Chapter 732 - Organization and Corporate Procedures of Domestic Insurers; Regulation of Insurers Generally|Section 732.592 - Recovery from parent corporation or holding company if domestic insurer ordered into liquidation or rehabilitation.

(1) If an order for liquidation or rehabilitation of a domestic insurer has been entered, the receiver appointed under the order may recover, on behalf of the insurer, from any parent corporation or holding company or person or affiliate who otherwise controlled the insurer, the amount of distributions, other than distributions of shares of the same class of stock, paid by the insurer on the insurer’s capital stock, or any payment in the form of a bonus, termination settlement or extraordinary lump sum salary adjustment made by the insurer or the insurer’s subsidiary to a director, officer or employee, when such a distribution or payment is made at any time during the 12 calendar months preceding the petition for liquidation, conservation or rehabilitation, as the case may be, subject to the limitations of subsections (2), (3) and (4) of this section. (2) A distribution to which subsection (1) of this section applies is not recoverable if the parent or affiliate shows that the distribution was lawful and reasonable when paid and that the insurer did not know and could not reasonably have known that the distribution might adversely affect the ability of the insurer to fulfill the insurer’s contractual obligations. (3) Any person who was a parent corporation or holding company or a person who otherwise controlled the insurer or affiliate at the time a distribution to which subsection (1) of this section applies was paid is liable in an amount that is not more than the amount of distributions or payments received by the person under subsection (1) of this section. Any person who otherwise controlled the insurer at the time such distributions were declared is liable up to the amount of distributions the person would have received if the distributions had been paid immediately. If two or more persons are liable with respect to the same distributions, the persons are jointly and severally liable. (4) The maximum amount recoverable under this section is the amount needed in excess of all other available assets of the impaired or insolvent insurer to pay the contractual obligations of the impaired or insolvent insurer and to reimburse any guaranty funds. (5) To the extent that any person liable under subsection (3) of this section is insolvent or otherwise fails to pay claims due from the person pursuant to subsection (3) of this section, the person’s parent corporation or holding company or other person who otherwise controlled the person liable under subsection (3) of this section when the distribution was paid are jointly and severally liable for any resulting deficiency in the amount recovered from the parent corporation or holding company or person who otherwise controlled the person liable under subsection (3) of this section. (6) If the director places an insurer under liquidation or rehabilitation as provided in ORS chapter 734 and the insurer engages in transactions within an insurance holding company system as provided in ORS 732.574, the director retains authority over the insurer’s operations and over transactions in which the insurer engages within an insurance holding company system of which the insurer is a member.
