- Liabilities: The aggregate of all debts and other legal obligations of a particular person or legal entity.
- Settlement: Parties to a lawsuit resolve their difference without having a trial. Settlements often involve the payment of compensation by one party in satisfaction of the other party's claims.
2. The bond shall be conditioned upon:
(a) The payment of costs incurred by the State of Nevada in the event of any proceeding for liquidation or dissolution of the proposed organization before completion or organization, or, if to be an insurer, a certificate of authority is not granted;
(b) Compliance with terms of the permit and with applicable laws of this state; and

3. In lieu of filing such a bond the applicant may deposit with the Commissioner cash in the amount of $50,000 or securities of the United States Government or of the State of Nevada in market value of at least $50,000, and the Commissioner shall hold such deposit in trust for the same purposes as apply to a bond under subsection 2. The amount so deposited may, in the Commissioner’s discretion, be credited toward payment of subscriptions to securities by founders, promoters and incorporators if required under subparagraph (1) of paragraph (e) of subsection 2 of NRS 692B.110, (terms of permit) but subject to such diminution of such credit as may result from actual application of the deposit to the purposes for which made.
4. The Commissioner may, in the discretion of the Commissioner, waive the requirement for a bond or deposit in lieu thereof if the securities are to be issued in connection with subsequent financing as provided for in NRS 692B.260.
