Copy as parenthetical citation

(b) The provisions of subsection (a) hereof shall not apply to the conduct of a designated representative acting under the authority of an unlicensed fraternal benefit society which was heretofore licensed to do business in this state and has obtained a certificate from the superintendent authorizing designated representatives to act for such society in the collection of payments or dues from members or perform any act incident to existing membership but not to solicit members or assist in procuring members. The application for such certificate shall be on such form or forms and supplements thereto, and shall contain such information, as the superintendent may prescribe. There shall be attached to such forms a statement by such society stating that such society has satisfied itself that the proposed designated representative is trustworthy and competent to act as such designated representative and that the society will appoint him to act as its designated representative. Such statement shall be subscribed by an officer of such society and affirmed by such officer as true under the penalties of perjury. The superintendent may revoke the superintendent's authorization of any designated representative after notice and hearing and on the grounds enumerated in subsection (a) of section two thousand one hundred ten of this chapter.
