Due to guaranty association limits set on contractual obligations, some policyholders suffered cash losses. These losses are claims against the SNLIC estate and therefore must be paid through the distribution of the assets of the estate. SNLIC also sold policies outside the United States. No guaranty association coverage was available to these policyholders.

Although there are legal and asset issues currently outstanding in SNLIC, the Liquidator determined that there were sufficient available funds in the SNLIC estate to petition the Court for approval to make a partial distribution to policyholders and beneficiaries for losses incurred. The Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania approved the petition for partial distribution on July 18, 2001.

Checks were mailed to all priority level "b" claimants on August 31, 2001. The checks represented a 60 % distribution on the cash loss that was experienced.​
