1. A service contract must:

(a) Be written in language that is understandable and printed in a typeface that is easy to read.

(b) Indicate that it is insured by a contractual liability insurance policy if it is so insured, and include the name and address of the issuer of the policy or that it is backed by the full faith and credit of the provider if the service contract is not insured by a contractual liability insurance policy.

(c) Include the amount of any deductible that the holder is required to pay.

(d) Include the name and address of the provider and, if applicable:

(1) The name and address of the administrator; and

(2) The name of the holder, if provided by the holder.

The names and addresses of such persons are not required to be preprinted on the service contract and may be added to the service contract at the time of the sale.

(e) Include the purchase price of the service contract. The purchase price must be determined pursuant to a schedule of fees established by the provider. The purchase price is not required to be preprinted on the service contract and may be negotiated with the holder and added to the service contract at the time of sale.

(f) Include a description of the goods covered by the service contract.

(g) Specify the duties of the provider and any limitations, exceptions or exclusions.

(h) If the service contract covers a motor vehicle, indicate whether replacement parts that are not made for or by the original manufacturer of the motor vehicle may be used to comply with the terms of the service contract.

(i) Include any restrictions on transferring or renewing the service contract.

(j) Include the terms, restrictions or conditions for cancelling the service contract before it expires and the procedure for cancelling the service contract. The conditions for cancelling the service contract must include, without limitation, the provisions of NRS 690C.270.

(k) Include the duties of the holder under the contract, including, without limitation, the duty to protect against damage to the goods covered by the service contract or to comply with any instructions included in the owner’s manual for the goods.

(l) Indicate whether the service contract authorizes the holder to recover consequential damages.

(m) Indicate whether any defect in the goods covered by the service contract existing on the date the contract is purchased is not covered under the service contract.

2. A provider shall not allow, make or cause to be made a false or misleading statement in any of the service contracts of the provider or intentionally omit a material statement that causes a service contract to be misleading. The Commissioner may require the provider to amend any service contract that the Commissioner determines is false or misleading.
