A bill

TO AMEND THE SOUTH CAROLINA CODE OF LAWS BY AMENDING 
SECTION 38-27-610, RELATING TO PRIORITY OF DISTRIBUTION FOR CLAIMS, SO AS TO 
ADD FUNDING AGREEMENTS.

Be it enacted by the 
General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

SECTION 1. Section 38-27-610(2) of the S.C. Code is amended to 
read:

 (2) Class 2. Claims under policies, 
including claims of federal, state, and local governments, for losses incurred, 
loss claims, including third party claims, and claims of a guaranty association 
or foreign guaranty association. Claims under life insurance, and annuity policies, and funding agreements whether for death proceeds, 
annuity proceeds, or investment values, must be treated as loss claims. That 
portion of a loss, indemnification for which is provided by other benefits or 
advantages recovered by the claimant, must not be included in this class, other 
than benefits or advantages recovered or recoverable in discharge of familial 
obligations of support or by way of succession at death, or as proceeds of life 
insurance or as gratuities. No payment by an employer to his employee may be 
treated as a gratuity.

SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval 
by the Governor.
