(a) The funds and other property, together with interest and dividends thereon and proceeds therefrom, conditioned upon issuance of the certificate holder’s contracts to pay annuities, shall be maintained under a separate trust agreement for reserves held for the benefit of California annuitants and shall be held legally and physically segregated from the other assets of the certificate holder. The amendments to this subdivision enacted during the 1993 portion of the 1993–94 Regular Session shall apply to any organization that is issued a new certificate of authority on or after January 1, 1994. Any grants and annuities society that holds a certificate of authority on January 1, 1994, and that is not in compliance with this subdivision as of that date, shall comply with these amendments by January 1, 1998. (b) Nothing in subdivision (a) shall prevent the certificate holder from withdrawing from time to time, pursuant to an appropriate resolution of its board of trustees, that amount or amounts as are determined, in a manner which is satisfactory to the commissioner, to be excess over and above its reserve required to be maintained under the provisions of Section 11521. (c) If the grants and annuities society will manage and direct investment of the reserve funds required under Section 11521, the California reserves may be held under a declaration of trust stating that the grants and annuities society will hold the funds in trust and invest funds or property held in trust in accordance with the requirements of this code. If a bank will manage or direct the investment of the California reserves fund, a trust agreement shall be executed with that institution that will act as a trustee.
