(ii) The notification by the commissioner to an insurer of an adjusted RBC report that indicates the event in paragraph (i) of this subsection, provided the insurer does not challenge the adjusted RBC report under W.S. 26-48-107;
(iii) If the insurer challenges an adjusted RBC report that indicates the event in paragraph (i) of this subsection, under W.S. 26-48-107, the notification by the commissioner to the insurer that the commissioner has, after a hearing, rejected the insurer's challenge;
(iv) The failure of the insurer to file an RBC report annually by March 15, unless the insurer has provided an explanation for the failure which is satisfactory to the commissioner and has filed an RBC report by March 25;
(v) The failure of the insurer to submit an RBC plan to the commissioner within the time period set forth in W.S. 26-48-103(c);
(vi) Notification by the commissioner to the insurer that:
(A) The RBC plan or revised RBC plan submitted by the insurer is, in the judgment of the commissioner, unsatisfactory; and
(B) Such notification constitutes a regulatory action level event with respect to the insurer, provided the insurer has not challenged the determination under W.S. 26-48-107.
(vii) If the insurer challenges a determination by the commissioner under paragraph (vi) of this subsection pursuant to W.S. 26-48-107, the notification by the commissioner to the insurer that the commissioner has, after a hearing, rejected the challenge;
(viii) Notification by the commissioner to the insurer that the insurer has failed to adhere to its RBC plan or revised RBC plan, but only if the failure has a substantial adverse effect on the ability of the insurer to eliminate the company action level event in accordance with its RBC plan or revised RBC plan and the commissioner has so stated in the notification, provided the insurer has not challenged the determination under W.S. 26-48-107; or
(ix) If the insurer challenges a determination by the commissioner under paragraph (viii) of this subsection pursuant to W.S. 26-48-107, the notification by the commissioner to the insurer that the commissioner has, after a hearing, rejected the challenge, unless the failure of the insurer to adhere to its RBC plan or revised RBC plan has no substantial adverse effect on the ability of the insurer to eliminate the regulatory action level event with respect to the insurer.
(b) In the event of a regulatory action level event the commissioner shall:
(i) Require the insurer to prepare and submit an RBC plan or, if applicable, a revised RBC plan;
(ii) Perform an examination or analysis as he deems necessary of the assets, liabilities and operations of the insurer including a review of its RBC plan or revised RBC plan; and
(iii) Subsequent to the examination or analysis, issue an order specifying the corrective actions he determines are required.
(c) In determining corrective actions, the commissioner may take into account factors deemed relevant with respect to the insurer based upon his 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 RBC instructions. The RBC plan or revised RBC plan shall be submitted:
(i) Within forty-five (45) days after the occurrence of the regulatory action level event;
(ii) If the insurer challenges an adjusted RBC report under W.S. 26-48-107, within forty-five (45) days after the notification to the insurer that the commissioner has, after a hearing, rejected the insurer's challenge; or

(d) The commissioner may retain actuaries and investment experts and other consultants necessary in the judgment of the commissioner to review the insurer's RBC plan or revised RBC 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.
