The office may, in its discretion, vary the standards of mortality applicable to all benefit contracts on substandard lives or other extra hazardous lives by any society authorized to do business in this state. (4) With the consent of the insurance supervisory official of the state of domicile of the society and under such conditions, if any, which such official may impose, any society may establish and maintain reserves on its certificates in excess of the reserves required thereunder, but the contractual rights of any benefit member shall not be affected thereby.
