Terms Used In Kentucky Statutes 304.24-623

  • 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

(b) The acquisition will frustrate the fair and equitable plan of conversion as approved by the members and the commissioner;
(c) The acquisition or change of control will result in unjust enrichment of the acquiring persons to the detriment of the eligible members of the converting mutual; and
(d) The acquisition would not be in the best interest of the present and future policyholders of the former mutual, without regard to any interest of policyholders as shareholders of the former mutual or any affiliate company.
(3) The requirements of this section shall be in addition and supplemental to any other filings or approvals required by this chapter or otherwise by law.
