33-25-302. Disapproval of agency contracts. (1) The commissioner may disapprove a title agency contract between a title insurance producer and title insurer, upon appropriate notice to the parties to the contract, if the commissioner finds that the contract, together with all amendments and related documents:
(a) does not provide for adequate monitoring of the insurance producer's financial transactions; or
(b) provides for inadequate, unreasonable, or excessive amounts to be paid to or retained by the title insurance producer. Factors the commissioner may consider in this determination include but are not limited to the insurance producer's duties under the contract and the general level of amounts paid to or retained by other title insurance producers in the state performing or assuming comparable duties.
(2) A person may not act as a title insurance producer under an agency contract that has been disapproved by the commissioner.
