Applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law may affect the ability of the Company to declare and pay dividends on its Common Stock. In particular, pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, a company may pay dividends out of its surplus, as defined, or out of its net profits, for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or the preceding year. Surplus is defined in the Delaware General Corporation Law to be the excess of net assets of the company over capital. Capital is defined to be the aggregate par value of shares issued. Moreover, the ability of the Company to pay dividends, if and when declared by its Board of Directors, may be restricted by regulatory limits on the amount of dividends, which the Insurance Entities are permitted to pay the Company. Restrictions limiting the payment of dividends by UVE UVE pays dividends to shareholders, which are funded by earnings on investments and distributions from the earnings of its consolidated subsidiaries. Generally, other than as disclosed above and in “—Note 7 (Long-Term Debt),” there are no restrictions for UVE limiting the payment of dividends. However, UVE’s ability to pay dividends to shareholders may be affected by restrictions on the ability of the Insurance Entities to pay dividends to UVE through UVECF. See “—Note 5 (Insurance Operations),” for a discussion of these restrictions. There are no such restrictions for UVE’s non-insurance consolidated subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the restriction on the net assets of the Insurance Entities, UVE received distributions from the earnings of its non-insurance consolidated subsidiaries of $96.6 million, $122.2 million and $46.9 million during the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2016, UVE made a capital contribution of $2.0 million to APPCIC, in conjunction with APPCIC’s plan to begin writing commercial residential products in Florida. There were no capital contributions by UVE to the Insurance Entities during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. The Company prepares and files a consolidated federal tax return for UVE and its consolidated subsidiaries.
