incorporated in this state shall be exempt from the provisions of

there will be only one class of stock of such insurer outstanding
which is owned beneficially by no more than one domestic insurer,
providing all of the following requirements have been met:

been stamped or printed prominently on their face a legend in a form
to be prescribed by rule of the commissioner restricting the transfer
of such stock in such manner as the rule provides.
(2) The offer and sale of such stock is not accompanied by the
publication of any advertisement, and no selling expenses have been
given, paid, or incurred in connection therewith.
(3) The consideration to be received by the issuer for the stock
to be issued shall consist of only cash or cancellation of
indebtedness for money borrowed or both upon the initial organization
