A BILL FOR AN ACT
RELATING TO INSURANCE.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. Chapter 431, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by adding to article 7 a new section to be appropriately designated and to read as follows:
"§431:7- Application of attractions and educational facilities tax credit. The attractions and educational facilities tax credit provided under section 235-110.46 may be claimed against the tax imposed under section 431:7-202."
SECTION 2. Section 431:7-209, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended to read as follows:
"[[]§431:7-209[]]
High technology business investment tax credit. The high technology business investment tax credit
provided under section 235-110.9 [shall be operative for this chapter on July

431:7-202."
SECTION 3. Section 431:9A-108, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended as follows:
(1) By amending subsection (a) to read as follows:
"(a) Except as provided in section 431:9A-112, a
nonresident [applicant] person shall receive a nonresident
producer license if:
(1) The [applicant]
person is currently licensed as a resident and is in good standing in
the [applicant's] person's home state;
(2) The [applicant]
person has submitted the proper request for licensure and has
paid the fees required by section 431:7-101;
(3) The [applicant]
person has submitted or transmitted to the commissioner the application
for licensure that the [applicant] person submitted to the [applicant's]
person's home state[,] or, in lieu of the same, a
completed uniform application; and
(4) The [applicant's]
person's home state awards nonresident producer license to residents of
this State on the same basis."
(2) By amending subsections (d) and (e) to read as follows:
"(d)
Notwithstanding any other provision of this article, [an applicant] a
person licensed as a surplus lines producer in the [applicant's] person's
home state shall receive a surplus lines broker license if:
(1) The [applicant]
person complies with subsection (a); and
(2) The [applicant's]
person's home state issues nonresident surplus lines broker licenses to
residents of this State on the same basis.
(e)
Notwithstanding any other provision of this article, [an applicant]
a person licensed as a limited line credit insurance producer or other
type of limited lines producer in the person's home state shall receive a
nonresident limited lines producer license, pursuant to subsection (a), granting
the same scope of authority as granted under the license issued by the [producer's]
person's home state. Limited lines insurance authority is any authority
granted by the home state[,] that restricts the authority of the license
to less than the total authority prescribed in the associated major lines
pursuant to section 431:9A-107(a)(1) through (5)."

"(a) The total number (rounded to the

insurance policy, and of notices of intention to condition renewal upon
reduction of limits of any coverage, which an insurer may issue, shall be
limited for each calendar year to two per cent of the total number of covered
policies of the insurer in force at last year-end in each of the insurer's
rating territories in use in this State that have completed their required
policy periods. However, the insurer may non-renew or conditionally renew one
policy in any of the insurer's rating territories in use in this State if the
applicable percentage limitation results in less than one policy.
Cancellations, notices of intention not to renew, and [notice] notices
of intention to conditionally renew made pursuant to section 431:10C-111(a)(1),
[and] (a)(2), and [section 431:10C-111(e)] (d) shall be
independent of and in addition to those permitted under this subsection."
