2. is an attorney for or of counsel for any party in the action;

3. is an officer, director, stockholder, or employee of a corporation the assets of which are in question; or

4. stands in any relation to the subject of the controversy that would tend to interfere with the impartial discharge of his duties as an officer of the court.

B. If the court is satisfied that the best interests of the parties would be served, an individual or corporation otherwise disqualified under 6.01(A) of this rule may be appointed as receiver by an order specifically setting forth the reason for departing from the general rule.
