Effective - 01 Sep 2003   409.4-408. Termination of employment or association of agent and investment adviser representative and transfer of employment or association. — (a) If an agent registered under this act terminates employment by or association with a broker-dealer or issuer, or if an investment adviser representative registered under this act terminates employment by or association with an investment adviser or federal covered investment adviser, or if either registrant terminates activities that require registration as an agent or investment adviser representative, the broker-dealer, issuer, investment adviser, or federal covered investment adviser shall promptly file a notice of termination. If the registrant learns that the broker-dealer, issuer, investment adviser, or federal covered investment adviser has not filed the notice, the registrant may do so.  (b) If an agent registered under this act terminates employment by or association with a broker-dealer registered under this act and begins employment by or association with another broker-dealer registered under this act; or if an investment adviser representative registered under this act terminates employment by or association with an investment adviser registered under this act; or, if a federal covered investment adviser, who has filed a notice under section 409.4-405 and begins employment by or association with another investment adviser registered under this act; or if a federal covered investment adviser, who has filed a notice under section 409.4-405, upon the filing by or on behalf of the registrant, within thirty days after the termination, of an application for registration that complies with the requirement of section 409.4-406(a) and payment of the filing fee required under section 409.4-410, the registration of the agent or investment adviser representative, is:  (1) Immediately effective as of the date of the completed filing, if the agent's Central Registration Depository record or successor record or the investment adviser representative's Investment Adviser Registration Depository record or successor record does not contain a new or amended disciplinary disclosure within the previous twelve months; or  (2) Temporarily effective as of the date of the completed filing, if the agent's Central Registration Depository record or successor record or the investment adviser representative's Investment Adviser Registration Depository record or successor record contains a new or amended disciplinary disclosure within the preceding twelve months.  (c) The commissioner may by order withdraw a temporary registration if there are or were grounds for discipline as specified in section 409.4-412 and the commissioner does so within thirty days after the filing of the application. If the commissioner does not withdraw the temporary registration within the thirty-day period, registration becomes automatically effective on the thirty-first day after filing.  (d) The commissioner may by order prevent the effectiveness of a transfer of an agent or investment adviser representative under subsection (b)(1) or (2) based on the public interest and the protection of investors.  (e) If the commissioner determines that a registrant or applicant for registration is no longer in existence or has ceased to act as a broker-dealer, agent, investment adviser, or investment adviser representative, or is the subject of an adjudication of incapacity or is subject to the control of a committee, conservator, or guardian, or cannot reasonably be located, a rule adopted or order issued under this act may require the registration be cancelled or terminated or the application denied. The commissioner may reinstate a cancelled or terminated registration, with or without hearing, and may make the registration retroactive. ­­-------- (L. 2003 H.B. 380)  Effective 9-01-03
