(b) Five and less than ten years prior to the date as of which the statement is made, one thousand dollars for each suit.
(c) Three and less than five years prior to the date as of which the statement is made, eight hundred and fifty dollars for each suit.
(2) For all liability policies written during the three years immediately preceding the date as of which the statement is made, such reserve shall be sixty per centum of the earned liability premiums of each of such three years, less all loss and loss expense payments made under liability policies written in the corresponding years, but, in any event, such reserve shall, for the first of such three years, be not less than seven hundred and fifty dollars for each outstanding liability suit on said year's policies.
(3) For all compensation claims under policies written more than three years prior to the date as of which the statement is made, the present value, at four per centum interest, of the determined and estimated future payments.
(4) For all compensation claims under policies written in the three years immediately preceding the date as of which the statement is made, such reserve shall be sixty-five per centum of the earned compensation premiums of each of such three years, less all loss and loss expense payments made in connection with such claims under policies written in the corresponding years, but, in any event, in the case of the first year of any such three-year period, such reserve shall be not less than the present value, at four per centum interest, of the determined and the estimated unpaid compensation claims under policies written during such year.
