Upon granting to such organization or person a certificate of authority to receive such transfers, the commissioner shall require it to establish and maintain a reserve fund adequate to meet the future payments under its outstanding annuity contracts and in any event not less than an amount computed as follows:

(a) In the case of annuities payable under agreements made prior to January 1, 1950, in accordance with the standard of valuation based upon McClintock’s table of mortality among annuitants, with interest assumption at 31/2 percent per annum.

(b) In the case of annuities payable under agreements made on and after January 1, 1950, in accordance with the standard of valuation based upon the 1937 Standard Annuity Table, with interest assumption at 21/2 percent per annum, or other table of mortality derived from recent annuity experience, with interest assumption not higher than is currently yielded on safe securities, as may be prescribed by the commissioner.

For any failure on its part to establish and maintain such reserve fund, the commissioner shall revoke its certificate of authority.
