Each insurer licensed to transact the business of insurance in this Commonwealth shall obtain an annual renewal of its license from the Commission. The Commission may refuse to renew the license of any insurer or may renew the license, subject to any restrictions considered appropriate by the Commission, if it finds an impairment of required capital and surplus or if it finds that the insurer has not satisfied all the conditions set forth in subsection B of § 38.2-1024. The Commission shall not fail to renew the license of any insurer to transact the business of insurance without giving the insurer ten days’ notice and giving it an opportunity to be heard. The hearing may be informal, and the required notice may be waived by the Commission and the insurer.
