2. Such as shall be necessary for the convenient transaction of its business;
3. Such as shall have been acquired for the accommodation of its business;
4. Such as shall have been mortgaged to it in good faith by way of security for loans previously contracted or for money due;
5. Such as shall have been conveyed to it in connection with its investments in real estate contracts or its investments in real estate under lease or for the purpose of leasing or developing in accordance with paragraph 8 of section 2 of this chapter or such as shall have been acquired for the purpose of investment under paragraph 20 of section 2(b) of this chapter. Any real estate acquired under paragraph 20 of section 2(b) of this chapter shall be evaluated for statement purposes in a manner satisfactory to the department.
6. Such as shall have been conveyed to it in satisfaction of debts previously contracted in the course of its dealings, or in exchange for real estate so conveyed to it; and
7. Such as it shall have purchased at sales on judgments, decrees or mortgages obtained or made for such debts.
All such real estate specified in paragraphs (3), (4), (5), (6), and (7) of this section, which shall not be necessary for the convenient transaction of its business, and which is not held under paragraphs 7, 8 or 20 of section 2(b) of this chapter, shall be sold by the life insurance company and disposed of within ten (10) years after it shall have acquired the title to same, or within five (5) years after the same shall have ceased to be necessary for the accommodation of its business, unless the company procures the certificate of the commissioner that its interests will suffer materially by a forced sale thereof, in which event the time for the sale may be extended to such time as the commissioner shall direct in such certificate.
