Terms Used In Kentucky Statutes 304.24-617

  • Company: may extend and be applied to any corporation, company, person, partnership, joint stock company, or association. See Kentucky Statutes 446.010
  • Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts

(2) Number of eligible members;
(3) Length of membership in the converting mutual; (4) Premiums paid by members;

(6) Risk of line of insurance;
(7) Sources of the proportionate contributions to historical surplus, based on such groupings, classification, historical information, assumptions, and projections as are actuarially sound and reasonable;
(8) For a converting mutual that is a property and casualty company, the net earned premiums each eligible member has paid to the converting mutual, compared to the total net earned premiums paid by all eligible members, in each case during the period of time specified in the plan of conversion; and
(9) Any other relevant factors the commissioner may deem appropriate.
