Section 991.1409 - Injunctions and Certain Prohibitions(a) Whenever it appears to the department that any insurer or any director, officer, employe or agent thereof has committed or is about to commit a violation of this article or of any regulation or order issued by the department hereunder, the department may apply to the Commonwealth Court for an order enjoining such insurer or such director, officer, employe or agent thereof from violating or continuing to violate this article or any such regulation or order, and for such other equitable relief as the nature of the case and the interest of the insurer's policyholders, creditors and shareholders or the public may require.(b) No security which is the subject of any agreement or arrangement regarding acquisition, or which is acquired or to be acquired, in contravention of the provisions of this article or of any regulation or order issued by the department hereunder may be voted at any shareholder's meeting, or may be counted for quorum purposes, and any action of 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 shall be invalidated by the voting of such securities unless the action would materially affect control of the insurer or unless the courts of this Commonwealth have so ordered. If an insurer or the department has reason to believe that any security of the insurer has been or is about to be acquired in contravention of the provisions of this article or of any regulation or order issued by the department hereunder, the insurer or the department may apply to the Commonwealth Court to enjoin any offer, request, invitation, agreement or acquisition made in contravention of section 1402, or any regulation or order issued by the department thereunder to enjoin the voting of any security so acquired, to void any vote of such security already cast at any meeting of shareholders and for such other equitable relief as the nature of the case and the interest of the insurer's policyholders, creditors and shareholders or the public may require.(c) In any case where a person has acquired or is proposing to acquire any voting securities in violation of this article or any regulation or order issued by the department hereunder, the Commonwealth Court may, on such notice as the court deems appropriate, upon the application of the insurer or the department seize or sequester any voting securities of the insurer owned directly or indirectly by such person and issue such order with respect thereto as may be appropriate to effectuate the provisions of this article.Amended by P.L. 1111 2012 No. 136, § 8, eff. 9/3/2012.1921, May 17, P.L. 682, No. 284, art.
