In the event the paid-in capital stock and initial minimum surplus required of any domestic stock insurer is impaired, the commissioner of insurance shall determine the amount of such impairment and issue a written requisition to the insurer to require its stockholders to make good the amount of the impairment or deficiency within such period as he may designate, but not more than ninety days from the service of such requisition. The insurer shall call upon its stockholders ratably for such amount as is necessary to make up the impairment. If any stockholder refuses or neglects to pay the amount called for after proper notice, the insurer, through its directors, shall require the return of the certificate of stock held by such stockholder and issue to him in lieu thereof new certificates for such number of shares as he may be entitled to in proportion that the ascertained value of the assets of the corporation, as determined by the commissioner of insurance, bears to its original capital, the corporation paying for any fractional parts of shares. The directors may create new stock and issue certificates therefor and dispose of the same at not less than par for an amount sufficient to make up the original capital of the corporation. If the amount of any such impairment or deficiency cannot be made good within the time specified, the commissioner of insurance may proceed against the company in the manner provided in R.S. 22:73, 96, and Chapter 9 of this Title and Subpart H of Part III of this Chapter.
