(c) If there has been a default in an executory contract or unexpired lease of the insurer, the receiver may not assume the contract or lease unless, at the time of the assumption of the contract or lease, the receiver:
(1) cures or provides adequate assurance that the receiver will promptly cure the default; and
(2) provides adequate assurance of future performance under the contract or lease.
(d) Subsection (c) does not apply to a default that is a breach of a provision relating to:

(2) the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver in a case under this chapter or a custodian before the commencement of the delinquency proceeding; or
