Home State (2101(l)) Correct Ans - Home state means the District of

producer maintains his, her or its principal place of residence or principal
place of business and is licensed to act as an insurance producer.

,Negotiate (2101(m)) Correct Ans - Negotiate or negotiation means the
act of conferring directly with or offering advice directly to a purchaser or
prospective purchaser of a particular contract of insurance concerning any of
the substantive benefits, terms or conditions of the contract, provided that the
person engaged in that act either sells insurance or obtains insurance from
licensed insurers, fraternal benefit societies or health maintenance
organizations for purchasers.

or health maintenance organization issued a certificate of authority pursuant

discretion require an applicant for a license under this section to present
evidence, in such form as he prescribes, that such applicant has been
employed, for a period which he deems reasonable, by an insurer, an
independent adjuster or a public adjuster, in the performance of duties which
in his opinion would provide the applicant with a satisfactory preliminary
training for the duties and responsibilities which would evolve upon him as a
licensee under this section. The term independent adjuster means any person,
firm, association or corporation who for money, commission or any other
thing of value, acts in this state on behalf of an insurer in the work of
investigating and adjusting claims arising under insurance contracts issued by
such insurer and who performs such duties required by such insurer as are
incidental to such claims and also includes any person who for compensation
or anything of value investigates and adjusts claims on behalf of any
independent adjuster.

Adjuster 2108 Correct Ans - Adjusters will be licensed as either
independent adjusters, or as public adjusters. The Superintendent may
prescribe the types of independent adjusters' licenses according to the kind or
kinds of insurance claims which the licensee is to be authorized to investigate
and adjust. No adjuster may act on behalf of an insurer unless licensed as an
independent adjuster, and no adjuster may act on behalf of an insured unless
licensed as a public adjuster. A public adjuster works on behalf of the insured
for a fee.

, Nonresident 2101(d) Correct Ans - In this section, non-resident

employee maintains an office as an insurance agent.

insurance broker", means an individual who is a non-resident of this state and
who is licensed or authorized to act as an insurance broker in the state in
which he resides, or in which he, or the firm or association of which he is a
member or employee, or the corporation, of which he is an officer, director or
employee maintains an office as an insurance broker.

Nonresident 2103(g)(5) Correct Ans - In the discretion of the
Superintendent, no written insurance examination will be required of any
individual seeking to be named as a licensee or sub-licensee who is a non-
resident insurance agent.

Nonresident 2103(g)(11) Correct Ans - No written insurance
examination will be required of any individual who applies for an insurance
agent license in this state who was previously licensed for the same line or
lines of authority in another state, provided, however, that the applicant's
home state grants non-resident licenses to residents of this state on the same
basis. Such individual shall also not be required to complete any prelicensing
education. This exemption is only available if the person is currently licensed
in that state or if the application is received within 90 days of the date of
cancellation of the applicant's previous license and if the prior state issues a
certification that, at the time of cancellation, the applicant was in good
standing in that state or the state's producer database records, maintained by
the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, its affiliates or
subsidiaries indicate that the producer is or was licensed in good standing for
the line of authority requested. An individual or entity licensed in another
state that moves to this state must make an application within 90 days of
establishing legal residence to become a resident licensee. No prelicensing
education or examination will be required of that person to obtain any line of
authority previously held in the prior state except where the Superintendent
determines otherwise by regulation.
