A reasonable time, not to exceed five years, must be allowed for disposal of a prohibited investment in hardship cases if the investment is demonstrated by the insurer to have been legal when made, or the result of a mistake made in good faith, or if the commissioner determines that the sale of the asset would be contrary to the interests of insureds, creditors, or the general public.
