You do not have to notify the Manager of a change of status where:

• A. the self-insurer proposes to cease doing business in CA
• B. the self-insurer changes ownership
• C. the self-insurer has a change in minority shareholders
• D. the self-insurer has a material change in management

Answer: (C)

The key idea is that notification to the Manager is required when a change could affect who controls or manages the self-insurer or its ability to meet requirements. A change in minority shareholders does not alter control or the management structure, so it does not trigger a notice requirement. In contrast, ceasing to do business in California, a change in ownership that could shift control, or a material change in management all directly affect the plan’s oversight, control, or operation and would require notifying the Manager.
