Every deposit made in this State by an insurer pursuant to this Title shall be held as long as there is outstanding any liability of the insurer as to which the deposit was so required; or, if a deposit required under the retaliatory provision, section 428, the deposit shall be held for so long as the basis of such retaliation exists.

[ 1973, c. 585, §12 (AMD) .]

4. If the insurer is subject to delinquency proceedings as defined in section 4353 upon the order of a court of competent jurisdiction the superintendent shall yield the insurer's assets held on deposit to the receiver, conservator, rehabilitator or liquidator of the insurer, or to any other properly designated official or officials who succeed to the management and control of the insurer's assets.

[ 1973, c. 585, §12 (AMD) .]
