(2) In the event of an Authorized Control Level Event with respect to an insurer, the Commissioner shall:
(a) Take such actions as are required under

20.04 regarding an insurer with respect to
which an Regulatory Action Level Event has occurred; or
(b) If the Commissioner deems it to be in the

applicable. In the event the Commissioner takes actions under this paragraph
pursuant to an Adjusted RBC Report, the insurer shall be entitled to such
protections as are afforded to insurers under the provisions of either M.G.L.
c. 175, §§ 180A through 180LV2 or c. 176, § 33 as applicable,
pertaining to summary proceedings.
