D. notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection A of this section, an insurer may immediately terminate an enrolled customer's enrollment under a portable electronics insurance policy without prior notice:

(1) for nonpayment of premium;

(2) if the enrolled customer ceases to have an active service with the vendor; or

(3) if an enrolled customer exhausts the aggregate limit of liability, if any, under the terms of the portable electronics insurance policy and the insurer sends notice of termination to the enrolled customer within thirty calendar days after exhaustion of the limit. However, if notice is not timely sent, enrollment shall continue notwithstanding the aggregate limit of liability until the insurer sends notice of termination to the enrolled customer;

E. if a portable electronics insurance policy is terminated by a policyholder, the policyholder shall mail or deliver written notice to each enrolled customer advising the enrolled customer of the termination of the policy and the effective date of termination. The written notice shall be mailed or delivered to the enrolled customer at least thirty days prior to the termination;
