Sec. 12. (a) Each applicant for a license under this chapter shall, as a condition to the granting of the license, file or have on file a certificate of insurance evidencing an effective policy of insurance issued by an insurance company authorized to do business in Indiana insuring in the name of the applicant all grain that is or may be in the licensee's facilities for its full market value against loss by fire, internal explosion, lightning, and windstorm.
(b) In case fire, internal explosion, lightning, or wind-storm destroys or damages any grain in a licensed facility, the licensee shall, upon demand by the depositor and upon being presented with the receipt or other evidence of ownership, make settlement, after deducting the licensee's charges and advances, at the market value of the grain based on the value at the average price paid for grain of the same grade and quality on the date of the loss at the location of the facility. If a settlement is not made within sixty (60) days from the date of demand, the depositor is entitled to seek recovery from the insurance company.
