If the director determines that an examination under this subsection is necessary or desirable, the examination may be made at the expense of the person to be examined. If the person to be examined under this subsection refuses to permit the examination to be made, the director may order any industrial loan and investment company that receives services from the person refusing the examination to:
(1) discontinue receiving one (1) or more services from the person; or
(2) otherwise cease conducting business with the person.
