  2. Section 98 requires the stated original representations and material knowledge, including subsequently acquired information, in the stipulated nonautomatic setting.
  3. Only the reinsurer's shareholders can receive any information.
  4. All summaries necessarily satisfy every duty.
  5. Reinsurance is outside the Insurance Code.
