NRS 616B.306
Commissioner may sell securities or institute proceedings on surety bonds of self-insured employer to pay claims.

1.

If a self-insured employer becomes insolvent, institutes any voluntary proceeding under the Bankruptcy Act or is named in any involuntary proceeding thereunder, makes a general or special assignment for the benefit of creditors or fails to pay compensation under chapters 616A to 616D, inclusive, or chapter 617 of NRS after an order for payment of any claim becomes final, the Commissioner may, after giving at least 10 days’ notice to the employer and any insurer or guarantor, use money or interest on securities, sell securities or institute legal proceedings on surety bonds deposited or filed with the Commissioner to the extent necessary to make those payments. Until the Commissioner gives a 10-day notice pursuant to this subsection, the employer is entitled to all interest and dividends on bonds or securities on deposit and to exercise all voting rights, stock options and other similar incidents of ownership thereof.

2.

A company providing a surety bond under NRS 616B.300 may terminate liability on its surety bond by giving the Commissioner and the employer 90 days’ written notice. The termination does not limit liability which was incurred under the surety bond before the termination. If the employer fails to requalify as a self-insured employer on or before the termination date, the employer’s certification is withdrawn when the termination becomes effective.
