2. 2. It (or a predecessor by merger, sale and purchase transformation or other reorganization, provided that at least 50% of the gross business in force and at least 50% of the management--including total number of officers and directors--of applicant are in such case each comprised in excess of 50% of the business and management of the merged, purchased, transformed or reorganized predecessor) has been lawfully engaged in the insurance business for at least five years and currently is admitted to transact insurance in at least five states;
3. 3. It currently has admitted assets of at least five million ($5,000,000) dollars; and
