of law with the title to all of the property, contracts, and rights

of action and all of the books and records of the insurer located in

this state, and he shall have the immediate right to recover

balances due from local agents and to obtain possession of any books

and records of the insurer found in this state. He shall also be

entitled to recover the other assets of the insurer located in this

state, except that upon the appointment of an ancillary receiver in

provisions, the ancillary receiver and his deputies shall have the

same powers and be subject to the same duties with respect to the

administration of such assets as a receiver of an insurer domiciled

in this state.

C. The domiciliary receiver of an insurer domiciled in a

reciprocal state may sue in this state to recover any assets of such
