to do business in this State; (b) An irrevocable letter of credit for which the registrant is the obligor, issued

by a bank whose deposits are federally insured; or (c) A certificate of deposit in a financial institution which is doing business in

this State and which is federally insured or insured by a private insurer approved

pursuant to NRS 672.755 . The certificate of deposit may be withdrawn only on the order of the Commissioner,

except that the interest may accrue to the registrant. 2. The term of the bond, letter of credit or certificate of deposit, or any renewal

thereof, must be not less than 1 year. 3. If the registrant deposits a bond, the registrant shall keep accurate records of

the bond and the payments made on the premium. The records must be open to inspection by the Unit during business hours. The registrant shall notify the Unit not later than 30 days before the date of expiration

of the bond and provide written proof of the renewal of the bond to the Unit. 4. The Commissioner may reject any bond, letter of credit or certificate of deposit

which fails to conform to the requirements of NRS 598.940 to 598.966 , inclusive. 5. A registrant may change the form of security which he or she has deposited with

the Unit. If the registrant changes the form of the security, the Commissioner may retain

for not more than 1 year any portion of the security previously deposited by the registrant

as security for claims arising during the time the previous security was in effect. 6. If the amount of the deposited security falls below the amount required by this

chapter for that security, the registrant shall be deemed not to be registered as

required by NRS 598.947 for the purposes of NRS 598.940 to 598.966 , inclusive.
