Connecticut General Statutes Title 38A. Insurance § 38a-147. Solicitation of proxies

(a) No person shall, in contravention of such regulations as the Insurance Commissioner may prescribe as necessary or appropriate in the public interest or for the protection of investors, solicit or permit the use of his name to solicit any proxy or consent or authorization in respect of any security issued by any domestic stock insurance company. No proxy, consent or authorization solicited in contravention of such regulations shall be valid or effective. Such regulations shall conform to those prescribed or approved by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, including such exemptive provisions as may be prescribed by or contained in the regulations of said association.

(b) Unless proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security of a domestic stock insurance company are solicited by or on behalf of the management of such company from the holders of record of such security in accordance with the regulations prescribed under subsection (a) of this section, prior to any annual or other meeting of the holders of such security, such company shall, in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Insurance Commissioner, file with the commissioner and transmit to all holders of record of such security information substantially equivalent to the information which would be required to be transmitted if a solicitation were made.

(c) Any person aggrieved by any act of the Insurance Commissioner hereunder may appeal therefrom to the superior court for the judicial district of Hartford.
