Note 14.          Subsequent Event

 

On July 31, 2015, Madison National Life and Standard Security Life together entered into a coinsurance and sale agreement with an unaffiliated reinsurer, National Guardian Life Insurance Company (“NGL”), to: (i) cede substantially all of their individual life and annuity policy blocks currently in run-off; and (ii) sell the related infrastructure associated with the administration of such policies. The Company transferred $206,953,000 of cash to NGL, net of the aggregate purchase price of $42,000,000 for the coinsurance and sale transaction.

 

As a result of this transaction, approximately $76,000,000 of the aforementioned life and annuity reserves were assigned and transferred to the reinsurer, contractually relieving the Company of the liability with regards to those policies. For the remaining life and annuity reserves ceded to the reinsurer, the Company recorded corresponding amounts as due from reinsurers. The ceding of reinsurance does not discharge the primary liability of the original insurer to the insured.
