(a) any insurance money payable to [F138 a member] under a stop-loss insurance in respect of a loss in his underwriting business; and

(b) any amount payable to a member out of the High Level Stop Loss Fund in respect of such a loss,

• “transferred loss”, in relation to such a contract, means a loss for which that other person takes over liability under the contract (disregarding, in the case of a loss that has been declared at the time it is taken over, any part of it in respect of which the member has paid a cash call before that time).]
