33-17-19. Liability of subscribers for obligations of insurer generally; contingent liability assessment
(a) The liability of each subscriber, other than as to a nonassessable policy, for the obligations of the reciprocal insurer shall be an individual, several, and proportionate liability, and not joint.

(c) Each assessable policy issued by the insurer shall contain a statement of the contingent liability.
