1. No security which is the subject of any agreement or arrangement regarding acquisition, or which is acquired or to be acquired, in contravention of NRS 693A.500 or of any regulation or order of the Commissioner may be voted at any shareholders' meeting or may be counted for quorum purposes, and any action of the shareholders requiring the affirmative vote of a percentage of shares may be taken as though such securities were not issued and outstanding, but no action taken at any such meeting may be invalidated by the voting of such securities unless:
(a) The action would materially affect control of the new stock insurer or an institution that owns a majority of the voting securities of the new stock insurer; or
(b) A court of competent jurisdiction has so ordered.
2. If a new stock insurer or the Commissioner has reason to believe that any security of the new stock insurer or an institution that owns a majority of the voting securities of the new stock insurer has been or is about to be acquired in contravention of NRS 693A.400 to 693A.540, inclusive, or of any regulation or order of the Commissioner, the new stock insurer or the Commissioner may apply to the First Judicial District Court in and for Carson City for an order to enjoin any offer or acquisition made in contravention of NRS 693A.500 or any regulation or order of the Commissioner to enjoin the voting of any security so acquired, to void any vote of such a security already cast at any shareholders' meeting, and for such other equitable relief as the nature of the case and the interest of the policyholders, creditors and shareholders of the new stock insurer, or the public, may require.
