(a) A surplus lines licensee may not exercise binding authority in this Commonwealth on behalf of an eligible surplus lines insurer unless there is in force a written contract executed by all parties to the contract setting forth the terms, conditions and limitations governing the exercise of binding authority by the surplus lines licensee. The written contract must, at a minimum, contain the following:
It is understood and agreed that all insurance placed pursuant to this agreement on risks resident, located, or to be performed in this Commonwealth, shall be effected and written in accordance with Article XVI of the act of May 17, 1921 (P. L. 682, No. 284) (40 P. S. § § 991.1601991.1625).
(b) An executed copy of the written contract shall be maintained by the surplus lines licensee in its office. The copy shall be available at all reasonable times for examination by the Department without notice for at least 5 years following termination of the contract.
(c) If a surplus lines licensee, who is qualified under this chapter to exercise binding authority on behalf of the eligible surplus lines insurer, delegates binding authority to any other surplus lines licensee, the instrument delegating binding authority shall specifically identify the binding authority agreement between the delegating surplus lines licensee and the eligible surplus lines insurer. An executed copy of the instrument delegating binding authority shall be maintained by both the surplus lines licensee delegating binding authority and the surplus lines licensee to whom the authority is delegated in their offices. The copy shall be available at all reasonable times for examination by the Department without notice for at least 5 years following termination of the contract.
