Section 40-3634 - Payment of reinsurance upon insolvency of ceding insurer

Except as provided in K.S.A. 40-3602 and amendments thereto, in the event of the insolvency of the ceding insurer, the reinsurance shall be payable under a contract reinsured by the assuming insurer on the basis of the liability of the ceding company under the contract or contracts reinsured, as approved by the liquidation court, without diminution because of the insolvency of the ceding insurer. Such payments shall be made directly to the ceding insurer or to its domiciliary liquidator except:

(a) Where the reinsurance contract or policy reinsured specifically provides another payee of such reinsurance in the event of the insolvency of the ceding insurer; or

(b) where the assuming insurer, with the consent of the direct insured, has assumed such policy obligations of the ceding insurer as direct obligations of the assuming insurer to the payees under such policies and in substitution for the obligations of the ceding insurer to such payees.
