33-2-1364. Filing of claims. (1) Proof of all claims must be filed with the liquidator in the form required by 33-2-1365 on or before the last day for filing specified in the notice required under 33-2-1346, except that proof of claims for cash surrender values or other investment values in life insurance and annuities is not required to be filed unless the liquidator requires.
     (2) The liquidator may permit a claimant making a late filing to share in distributions, whether past or future, as if the claimant were not late, to the extent that any payment will not prejudice the orderly administration of the liquidation, under the following circumstances:
     (a) the existence of the claim was not known to the claimant, and the claim was filed as promptly after learning of it as reasonably possible;
     (b) a transfer to a creditor was avoided under 33-2-1351 through 33-2-1357 or was voluntarily surrendered under 33-2-1358, and the filing satisfies the conditions of 33-2-1358; and
     (c) the valuation under 33-2-1370 of security held by a secured creditor shows a deficiency, which is filed within 30 days after the valuation.
     (3) The liquidator shall permit late filing claims to share in distributions, whether past or future, as if they were not late if the claims are claims of a guaranty association or foreign guaranty association for reimbursement of covered claims paid or expenses incurred, or both, subsequent to the last day for filing where the payments were made and expenses incurred as provided by law.
     (4) The liquidator may consider any claim filed late that is not covered by subsection (2) and permit it to receive distributions that are subsequently declared on any claims of the same or lower priority if the payment does not prejudice the orderly administration of the liquidation. The late-filing claimant must receive, at each distribution, the same percentage of the amount allowed on that claim that is being paid to claimants of any lower priority. This distribution must continue until the claim has been paid in full.
