Sec. 4. (a) If a domiciliary liquidator has been appointed for an insurer not domiciled in Indiana, the commissioner may file a petition with the Marion County circuit court requesting appointment as ancillary receiver in Indiana if:
(1) he finds that there are sufficient assets of the insurer located in Indiana to justify the appointment of an ancillary receiver; and
(2) the protection of creditors or policyholders in Indiana requires it.
(b) The Marion County circuit court may issue an order appointing an ancillary receiver in whatever terms it considers appropriate. The filing or recording of the order with the recorder of deeds in Indiana imparts the same notice as a deed, bill of sale, or other evidence of title duly filed or recorded with that recorder of deeds.
(c) When a domiciliary liquidator has been appointed in a reciprocal state, then the ancillary receiver appointed in Indiana may, whenever necessary, aid and assist the domiciliary liquidator in recovering assets of the insurer located in Indiana. The ancillary receiver shall, as soon as practicable, liquidate from their respective securities those special deposit claims and secured claims which are proved and allowed in the ancillary proceedings in Indiana, and shall pay the necessary expenses of the proceedings. He shall promptly transfer all remaining assets, books, accounts and records to the domiciliary liquidator. Subject to this section, the ancillary receiver and his deputies shall have the same powers and be subject to the same duties with respect to the administration of assets as a liquidator of an insurer domiciled in Indiana.
(d) When a domiciliary liquidator has been appointed in Indiana, ancillary receivers appointed in reciprocal states shall have, as to assets and books, accounts, and other records in their respective states, corresponding rights, duties and powers to those provided in subsection (c) for ancillary receivers appointed in Indiana.
