Ins 6.41(1)(d)1.1. For the purpose of determining whether the equity securities of an insurer are held of record by 100 or more persons, securities shall be deemed to be “held of record” by each person who is identified as the owner of such securities on records of security holders maintained by or on behalf of the insurer, subject to the following: Ins 6.41(1)(d)1.a.a. In any case where the records of security holders have not been maintained in accordance with accepted practice, any additional person who would be identified as such an owner on such records if they had been maintained in accordance with accepted practice shall be included as a holder of record. Ins 6.41(1)(d)1.b.b.

Each outstanding unregistered or bearer certificate shall be included as held of record by a separate person, except to the extent that the insurer can establish that, if such securities were registered, they would be held of record, under the provisions of this rule, by a lesser number of persons. Ins 6.41(1)(d)1.f.f.

All such statements shall be prepared and filed in accordance with the requirements of the applicable form. Ins 6.41(3)(b)(b) Ownership of more than 10% of an equity security. In determining, for the purpose of s. 611.31 (4) (a), Stats., whether a person is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 10% of any class of any equity security, such class shall be deemed to consist of the total amount of such class outstanding, exclusive of any securities of such class held by or for the account of the insurer or a subsidiary of the insurer; except that for the purpose of determining percentage ownership of voting trust certificates or certificates of deposit for equity securities, the class of voting trust certificates or certificates of deposit shall be deemed to consist of the amount of voting trust certificates or certificates of deposit issuable with respect to the total amount of outstanding equity securities of the class which may be deposited under the voting trust agreement or deposit agreement in question, whether or not all of such outstanding securities have been so deposited.

Ins 6.41(3)(c)(c) Disclaimer of beneficial ownership.

During the period of 12 months following their appointment and qualification, securities held by the following persons shall be exempt from s. 611.31 (4) (a) and (b), Stats.: Ins 6.41(3)(d)1.c.c.

Ins 6.41(3)(d)3.3. Securities reacquired by or for the account of an insurer and held by it for its account shall be exempt from s. 611.31 (4) (a) and (b), Stats., during the time they are held by the insurer.

Ins 6.41(3)(f)(f) Certain transactions subject to s. 611.31 (4) (a), Stats. The acquisition or disposition of any transferable option, put, call, spread or straddle shall be deemed such a change in the beneficial ownership of the security to which such privilege relates as to require the filing of a statement reflecting the acquisition or disposition of such privilege. Nothing in this par. (f), however, shall exempt any person from filing the statements required upon the exercise of such option, put, call, spread or straddle. Ins 6.41(3)(g)1.a.a.

Except as provided in subd. 3., beneficial ownership of securities solely as a settlor or beneficiary of a trust shall be exempt from the provisions of s. 611.31 (4) (a), Stats., where less than 20% in market value of the securities having a readily ascertainable market value held by such trust, determined as of the end of the preceding fiscal year of the trust, consists of equity securities with respect to which reports would otherwise be required. Exemption is likewise accorded from s. 611.31 (4) (a), Stats., with respect to any obligation which would otherwise be imposed solely by reason of ownership as settlor or beneficiary of securities held in trust, where the ownership, acquisition, or disposition of such securities by the trust is made without prior approval by the settlor or beneficiary. No exemption pursuant to this subdivision shall, however, be acquired or lost solely as a result of changes in the value of the trust assets during any fiscal year or during any time when there is no transaction by the trust in the securities otherwise subject to the reporting requirements of s. 611.31 (4) (a), Stats. Ins 6.41(3)(g)3.3.

Ins 6.41(3)(g)4.4. Not more than one report need be filed to report any holdings or with respect to any transaction in securities held by a trust, regardless of the number of officers, directors or 10% stockholders who are either trustees, settlors, or beneficiaries of a trust, provided that the report filed shall disclose the names of all trustees, settlors and beneficiaries who are officers, directors or 10% stockholders. A person having an interest only as a beneficiary of a trust shall not be required to file any such report so long as he or she relies in good faith upon an understanding that the trustee of such trust will file whatever reports might otherwise be required of such beneficiary. Ins 6.41(3)(g)5.e.e. A spouse of the trustee. For the purpose of determining whether any of the foregoing relations exists, a legally adopted child of a person shall be considered a child of such person by blood. Ins 6.41(3)(g)6.6. In determining, for the purposes of s. 611.31 (4) (a), Stats., whether a person is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 10% of any class of any equity security, the interest of such person in the remainder of a trust shall be excluded from the computation. Ins 6.41(3)(g)7.7. No report shall be required by any person, whether or not otherwise subject to the requirement of filing reports under s. 611.31 (4) (a), Stats., with respect to an indirect interest in portfolio securities held by: Ins 6.41(3)(g)7.a.a. A pension or retirement plan holding securities of an insurer whose employees generally are the beneficiaries of the plan, Ins 6.41(3)(g)8.8. Nothing in this par.

The person effecting the acquisition does not within 6 months thereafter effect any disposition, otherwise than by way of gift, of securities of the same class, and Ins 6.41(3)(h)1.b.b.

Any acquisition or disposition of securities by way of gift, where the total amount of such gifts does not exceed $3,000 in market value for any 6 months’ period, shall be exempt from s. 611.31 (4) (a), Stats., and may be excluded from the computations prescribed in subd. 1. b. Ins 6.41(3)(h)3.3. Any person exempted by subd. 1. or 2. shall include in the first report filed by him or her after a transaction within the exemption a statement showing acquisitions and dispositions for each 6 months’ period or portion thereof which has elapsed since the last filing. Ins 6.41(3)(i)(i) Exemption from s. 611.31 (4) (b), Stats. Any transaction which has been or shall be exempted from the requirements of s. 611.31 (4) (a), Stats., shall, insofar as it is otherwise subject to the provisions of s. 611.31 (4) (b), Stats., be likewise exempted from s. 611.31 (4) (b), Stats.
