VI. At any time the attorney general has reasonable cause to believe that the subdivider may be unable to complete the development of the subdivided lands, or provide for its maintenance, if responsibility therefor is assumed by the subdivider, as represented in its application for registration due to:
(a) Its failure to commence or complete the development of the subdivided lands according to schedules set forth in the application;

(c) Its failure to set forth a reasonable plan to obtain adequate financing to commence or complete the development of the subdivided lands or provide for its maintenance; or
(d) Its commission of any false, deceptive or misleading acts in connection with the offering or disposing of any interest in any subdivided lands or condominium;
it may require the subdivider to post a bond, in favor of the state, or to provide evidence of financial security in such amount as the attorney general determines to be necessary to provide reasonable assurance of the commencement and completion of the development of the subdivision. Such bond shall not be accepted unless it is with a surety company authorized to do business in this state.
