Such amounts shall be written off over a period not in excess of ten years, written down for any other than temporary decline of the fair value of an investment as a subsidiary, or other adjustments in accordance with the NAIC statements of statutory accounting principles.(2) For purposes of this section, "good will" shall be defined as the amount arising at a given point in time, resulting from an arm's-length transaction involving the transfer of a business, representing the difference between the value of the consideration given and the net asset value of the properties acquired on the books of the predecessor company.(3) Where warranted in exceptional cases, the commissioner may require a more rapid write-off of good will than is otherwise provided in this section.Wash.
