1. A surplus lines insurance producer shall not issue or deliver any evidence of insurance or purport to insure or represent that insurance will be or has been written by an eligible surplus lines insurer, unless the producer has authority from the insurer to bind the risk to be insured, or has received information from the insurer in the regular course of business that the coverage has been granted.
 2. Upon placement of surplus lines insurance, the surplus lines insurance producer shall promptly deliver to the insured the policy or contract, or if the policy or contract is not then available, a certificate cover note, binder, or other evidence of insurance. The certificate cover note, binder, or other evidence of insurance shall contain information as specified by the commissioner by rule.
 3. As soon as is reasonably possible after the placement of the insurance, the surplus lines insurance producer shall deliver a copy of the policy or contract or, if not available, a certificate of insurance to the insured to replace any evidence of insurance previously issued. Each policy or contract or certificate of insurance shall contain or have attached a complete record of all policy or contract insuring agreements, conditions, exclusions, clauses, endorsements, or any other material facts that would regularly be included in the policy or contract.
 4. If, after delivery of any evidence of insurance, there is any change in the identity of the eligible surplus lines insurer, or the proportion of the risk assumed by such insurer, or any other material change in coverage as stated in the original evidence of insurance, or in any other material change as to the insurance coverage so evidenced, the surplus lines insurance producer shall promptly issue and deliver to the insured an appropriate substitute for, or endorsement of the original document, accurately showing the current status of the coverage and the surplus lines insurer responsible for the coverage.
 5. Each surplus lines insurance producer shall keep a full and true record of each surplus lines insurance policy or contract placed by an eligible surplus lines insurer and issued or delivered by that person which covers risks wholly or partly located or to be performed in this state. These records and any other records deemed reasonably necessary by the commissioner shall be made available to the commissioner for examination upon request. Records shall be maintained for a period of not less than five years following termination of the surplus lines insurance policy or contract.
 6. A surplus lines insurance producer shall file a report and remit all premium taxes due to this state for all surplus lines insurance placed by an eligible surplus lines insurer and issued or delivered by that person during the reporting period established by the commissioner. The specific requirements for the timing of and content of the report and the manner of filing shall be specified by the commissioner by rule.
