17:50-9. Power to exchange contracts; insurance of trust property (a) Any corporation now or hereafter organized under the laws of this State shall, in addition to the rights, powers and franchises specified in its articles of incorporation, have full power and authority as a subscriber to exchange insurance contracts of the kind and character herein mentioned. The right to exchange such contracts is hereby declared to be incidental to the purposes for which such corporations are organized, and as much granted as the rights and powers expressly conferred. (b) All persons, firms or corporations holding property in trust may insure the same at a reciprocal exchange, and, in their representative capacity, may assume the liabilities and be entitled to the rights of a subscriber, but such trustees by so doing, shall not personally or individually be liable under the power of attorney executed on behalf of the trust.
