Sec. 425.006. ADDITIONAL RESERVES REQUIRED: SUBSTANDARD OR EXTRA HAZARDOUS POLICIES. (a) If a life insurance company engaged in business under the laws of this state has written or assumed risks that are substandard or extra hazardous and has charged more for the policies under which those risks are written or assumed than the company's published premium rates, the commissioner shall, in valuing those policies, compute and charge extra reserves on the policies as necessary because of the extra hazard assumed and the extra premium charged.

(b) If the commissioner determines, after notice and hearing, that a particular risk or class of risks is substandard or extra hazardous, a life insurance company may not, after the determination is made, write or assume the particular risk or class of risks unless the company charges an extra premium as necessary because of the extra hazard assumed.
