In any proceeding under this article, the commissioner, as conservator or as liquidator, may, subject to the approval of said court, and subject to such liens as may be necessary mutualize or reinsure the business of such person, or enter into rehabilitation agreements. No commissioner who acts as conservator of such person or who mutualizes, merges or reinsures the business of such person or who enters into rehabilitation agreements affecting such person, and no deputy commissioner who has participated in the administration of the affairs of such person for the commissioner as conservator shall for a period of two years from and after the effective date of such mutualization, reinsurance or rehabilitation become an officer or director of, or serve as an officer or director of, or serve in any position of gain or profit in, any company formed in whole or in part of the assets or funds, or any part of the assets or funds of such mutualized, merged, reinsured or rehabilitated person. Every person violating this provision is guilty of a public offense and shall be punished by imprisonment pursuant to subdivision (h) of Section 1170 of the Penal Code, or in a county jail not exceeding one year, or by a fine not exceeding ten thousand dollars ($10,000), or by both that fine and imprisonment. Such rehabilitation or reinsurance agreements shall provide that, subsequent to the date thereof and for such period of time as the commissioner may determine, no investment or reinvestment of the assets of the person rehabilitated or reinsured shall be made without first obtaining the written approval of the commissioner. Every party to such agreement, and every director, officer, agent and employee of such person, and every other person who knowingly in violation thereof directs or aids or assists in causing to be made an investment or reinvestment of any of said assets without first having obtained the written approval of the commissioner, or who makes such investment or reinvestment in nonconformity with the written approval of the commissioner then in effect authorizing such investment or reinvestment, is guilty of a public offense and shall be punished by imprisonment pursuant to subdivision (h) of Section 1170 of the Penal Code, or in a county jail or by a fine not exceeding ten thousand dollars ($10,000), or by both that fine and imprisonment.
