(1)

For the purposes of this section, unless the context otherwise requires:

(a)

(I)

Mortgage-backed securities issued, assumed, or guaranteed by the government national mortgage association, the federal national mortgage association, the federal home loan mortgage corporation, or their respective successors; and

(II)

Other mortgage-backed securities referred to in section 106 of Title I of the “Secondary Mortgage Market Enhancement Act of 1984”, 15 U.S.C. sec. 77r-1, as amended.

(b)

“Repurchase transaction” means a transaction in which an insurer purchases securities from a business entity that is obligated to repurchase the purchased securities or equivalent securities from the insurer at a specified price, either within a specified period of time or upon demand.

(c)

“Reverse repurchase transaction” means a transaction in which an insurer sells securities to a business entity and is obligated to repurchase the sold securities or equivalent securities from the business entity at a specified price, either within a specified period of time or upon demand.

(d)

“Securities lending transaction” means a transaction in which securities are loaned by an insurer to a business entity that is obligated to return the loaned securities or equivalent securities to the insurer, either within a specified period of time or upon demand.

(2)

An insurer may engage in securities lending, repurchase, reverse repurchase, and dollar roll transactions as set forth in this section. The insurer shall enter into a written agreement for securities lending, repurchase, reverse repurchase, and dollar roll transactions. Such agreements shall require that each transaction terminate no more than one year from its inception.

(3)

Cash received in a transaction under this section shall be invested in accordance with this article and in a manner that recognizes the liquidity needs of the transaction or is used by the insurer for its general corporate purposes.

(4)

So long as the transaction remains outstanding, the insurer, or its agent or custodian, shall maintain as acceptable collateral received in a transaction under this section, either physically or through the book entry systems of the federal reserve, depository trust company, participants’ trust company, or other securities depositories approved by the commissioner, any of the following:

(a)

Possession of the acceptable collateral;

(b)

A perfected security interest in the acceptable collateral; or

(c)

In the case of a jurisdiction outside of the United States, title to, or rights of a secured creditor to, the acceptable collateral.

(5)

The limitations of section 10-3-215 (1)(e) and section 10-3-215.5 shall not apply to the business entity counter-party exposure created by transactions under this section. An insurer shall not enter into a transaction under this section, other than a dollar roll transaction, if, as a result of and after giving effect to the transaction:

(a)

The aggregate amount of securities then loaned, sold to, or purchased from any one business entity counter-party under this section would exceed five percent of its admitted assets; and in calculating the amount sold to or purchased from a business entity counter-party under repurchase or reverse repurchase transactions, effect may be given to netting provisions under a master written agreement; or

(b)

The aggregate amount of all securities then loaned, sold to, or purchased from all business entities under this section would exceed forty percent of its admitted assets.

(6)

The amount of collateral required for securities lending, repurchase, and reverse repurchase transactions is the amount required pursuant to the provisions of the purposes and procedures manual of the national association of insurance commissioners’ securities valuation office or pursuant to a successor to such publication.
