§ 8-9B-3. Insolvency.

(a) A debtor is insolvent if the sum of the debtor’s debts at a fair valuation is greater than the sum of the debtor’s assets at a fair valuation.

(b) A debtor that is generally not paying the debtor’s debts as they become due other than as a result of a bona fide dispute is presumed to be insolvent. The presumption imposes on the party against which the presumption is directed the burden of proving that the nonexistence of insolvency is more probable than its existence.

(d) Debts under this section do not include an obligation to the extent it is secured by a valid lien on property of the debtor not included as an asset.
