Sections 1749 and 1749.3 shall not apply to a life agent who is limited by the terms of a written agreement with the insurer, which filed on that life agent’s behalf a notice of appointment with the commissioner, to transact only specific life insurance policies or annuities that have an initial face amount of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) or less that are designated by the purchaser for the payment of funeral and burial expenses. The commissioner may require the insurer appointing those life agents to certify as to the limitations of the agents’ representation.
